St Mary Coptic Orthodox Church

Welcome to St. Mary Coptic Orthodox Church in Knoxville, TN! Located at 1921 Sunny Lane, Knoxville, Tennessee 37912, we are dedicated to serving the spiritual needs of believers and the community in Knoxville. As a place of worship, we offer a welcoming environment for everyone seeking a deeper connection with their faith.

This Sunday marks the 1st Sunday of the blessed month of Tout, the first month of the new Coptic year 1741. Our church emphasizes the importance of repentance during this time. Join us for the Liturgy Gospel from Luke 7:28-35, which highlights the greatness of John the Baptist in the eyes of God.

We offer a variety of spiritual activities throughout the week:

- English Bible Study: Dive into The Epistle to the Romans, Chapter 7, every Wednesday from 7:00 pm to 8:00 pm.

- Arabic Bible Study: Explore The Book of Exodus, Chapters 20-21, every Wednesday from 7:00 pm to 8:00 pm.

We invite you to be part of our mission to expand our church facilities to better accommodate our growing congregation. If you feel called to support us in purchasing a larger church, please consider making a donation through the link provided on our website.

Under the spiritual guidance of Fr. Hedra Faltaous, who was ordained by H.G. Bishop Youssef on February 19, 2017, we strive to enrich the faith of our community. We pray that the Lord continues to bless his service and the lives of all our parishioners through the intercessions of St. Mary.

May God bless you abundantly, and we look forward to welcoming you to our church family.
