Saint Mary Coptic Orthodox Church

About this church

Saint Mary Coptic Orthodox Church in Houston gathers for Divine Liturgy shaped by ancient ritual, Scripture readings, rich hymns, prayer, and the Eucharist. The congregation also describes contemporary expressions of faith within that inherited worship, presenting tradition as living practice rather than a museum piece. Its Nicene Creed page states the parish’s Trinitarian belief, while an introduction to the Coptic Church places local worship within the historic Christian community of Alexandria.

The church sees itself as a diverse family united in Christ, growing through Bible study, fellowship, service, and mutual support. Outreach addresses addiction, loneliness, despair, education, and other needs, aiming to bring hope and healing to individuals and families. The reviewed official pages explain worship and identity but do not publish a stable current liturgy schedule, so newcomers should consult the live calendar before traveling to Lakeview Haven Drive. Visitors unfamiliar with Coptic Communion should ask about participation, and families should confirm language use, children’s formation, and the length of the particular service they plan to attend.
