Copts in the diaspora

Copts are members of the Coptic Orthodox Church, the largest Christian denomination in Egypt, with roots tracing back to the early Christian Church. In the diaspora, Copts have migrated globally, especially to the United States, Canada, and Australia, often seeking better economic opportunities and escaping political persecution. In their new communities, they work to maintain their cultural identity and religious practices while integrating into broader societies. Coptic diaspora communities often establish churches, schools, and cultural organizations to foster connection and support among members, ensuring their traditions and faith continue to thrive outside of Egypt.
