Arncliffe, St Mark Coptic Orthodox Church

St Mark Coptic Orthodox Church is located along Wollongong Road, in the southern suburb of Arncliffe. This former Methodist Church was built in 1907 and became part of the Uniting Church of Australia in 1977 and in 1980 a Coptic Orthodox Church.

  3. What a pretty little church. The curved windows and the curved openings at the top are so nice. I have never heard of a Coptic church. I will have to research it, because I am interested in knowing about it. Enjoy would weekend.

  6. It certainly looks Presbyterian until you see the big cross on top and then it looks Coptic!
