Mission: Who we are

SMSA is a family-oriented church rooted in the Coptic Orthodox faith, focused on serving the needs of the English-speaking community and converts in the Central Pennsylvania region. Through demonstrating the love of Christ, we welcome people from all nationalities and strive to relate to the needs of the families in our community.

Vision: How we do it

Our aim is to reflect the image of Christ by:

  • developing deeper relationships with Christ through understanding the faith,

  • living authentically in fellowship with the whole body of Christ,

  • experiencing Christ through communal worship in the liturgical services,

  • and serving each other and our community.

Goal: What we strive to be

As a Christ-centered community, we hope to grow as one family through shared values and a feeling of being home. We will labor passionately to raise a generation that is excited to come to church. We strive to continually be renewed and transformed with the goal of becoming more like Christ.

'For I know the plans I have for you' 

declares the Lord, 'plans to prosper you and not to harm you,

plans to give you hope and a future. Then you will call on Me

and come and pray to Me, and I will listen to you. 

You will seek Me and find me

when you seek Me with all your heart.'

Jeremiah 29:11-13
