Arncliffe, St Mark Coptic Orthodox Church

That's a beautiful church and cross.
ReplyDeleteA beautiful design. One doesn't see many Coptic churches.
ReplyDeletethere must be or perhaps was in the past a very thriving brick factory! Lovely church!
ReplyDeleteWhat 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.
ReplyDeleteNice church I like the gate post on the entrance
ReplyDeleteWonderful church and shadow shot!
ReplyDeleteHappy Weekend to you ~ ^_^

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