St. Antonious & St. Mina Coptic Orthodox Church of Alexandria 147 Park Avenue, East Rutherford, NJ 07073

Welcome to St. Antonious & St. Mina Coptic Orthodox Church of Alexandria, a sacred place of worship located at 147 Park Avenue, East Rutherford, New Jersey. As part of one of the oldest Christian traditions in the world, our church is deeply rooted in the rich history of the Coptic Orthodox Church of Alexandria, which traces its origins back to St. Mark the Apostle's mission to Egypt in the first century.

Our church is a proud member of the Oriental Orthodox family, emphasizing the importance of participating in holy sacraments, safeguarding divine mysteries, and adhering to the canons of the Holy Scriptures. We are committed to upholding the apostolic and Orthodox Creed teachings while honoring the legacy of the early church fathers and mothers.

The Coptic Orthodox Church, with its ancient roots in Egypt—a land blessed by the visit of Our Lord Jesus Christ—serves as the spiritual home for millions of believers worldwide, including a vibrant community of over 150 churches across North America. The word ‘Copt’ is derived from the ancient term ‘gypt,’ meaning ‘Egypt,’ reflecting our deep connection to this historic land.

At St. Antonious & St. Mina, we strive to provide a welcoming environment for worship, spiritual growth, and community engagement. Under the guidance of our dedicated clergy, we invite you to join us in celebrating our faith and fostering a deeper understanding of our cherished traditions.

We look forward to welcoming you to our church, where faith, history, and community come together in a harmonious celebration of Coptic Orthodox Christianity.
