History of St Athanasius Church
St Athanasius Church, UK existed in the region of East Anglia since 13th June 1996 under the guidance and blessings of Bishop Antony.  A small group of Coptic Christian families formed this church praying in various hired locations.
 
By the Grace of God the church congregation increased throughout the years, celebrating together Holy Mass every Sunday. 
 
The congregation was served by a number of honourable monk priests, our current priest Father Shishoy El Anthony started his service in St Athanasius Church in 2007.

 

 
St Athanasius Church is now serving a wider community all over the region of East Anglia.  We ask the Lord Jesus Christ to bless our church and make it a shining spiritual example and a beacon in this world, for the glorification of his Holy Name.
