    Well, I thought your priest said that you are ready? If so, I am guessing that he will be the one to baptize you at your local church.

    Err let's stay close to NJ. There are a dozen churches in NY, many in NJ, I think one in Delaware, and a couple in Pennsylvania. There's also a monastery in Rochester, NY that you might want to look at.

    Here's a list of all the Coptic Churches in North America:

    If it is for security purposes, then St. Antony's would definitely be the best bet.

    We do have a monastery in Rochester NY. It is still under construction; However they already have 2 brothers there Br. Antonios & someone else. They need all the financial aid possible too in case any one can help. Here is their site.
