Holy Cross Coptic Orthodox Church in San Diego, CA.
We are a growing community here in North county, and we are excited to share with you the progress of the building and renovating of our Church. From all your generous donations and support from this past year, we have been able to purchase a new, beautiful iconostasis for our church, which will be installed in the beginning of the New Year, God willing. Glory to God! As our church continues to grow, we have found a pressing need to establish a clean, comfortable space for the children in our Sunday school service to grow and learn in the Church. Our goal is to establish 7 designated classrooms in to order to serve all age groups. We are inviting you to help support this project. “Give to the Lord the glory due His name; bring an offering and come into His courts” login to venmo "@HolyCrossSD" Zelle Donation to "Holycrosscocfinance@gmail.com" أو عن طريق إرسال شيك بالبريد إلى صندوق البريد PO Box # 460865, Escondido, CA 92046 |
“Holy Cross Coptic Orthodox Church was established on October 16, 2013 as the second parish to serve the County of San Diego. It began as an idea to serve families living in the northern part of the county, which includes the cities of Oceanside, Carlsbad, San Marcos, Escondido and more. The first service was held in Oceanside under the care of His Eminence Metropolitan Serapion during the three-day Feast of the Cross in September 2013. Since then several priests have served the parish during the weekly Divine Liturgy on Sundays. Now, Father George Awad is serving this congregation.
