’oes the Coptic Church recognise marriages performed in other churches, such as the Catholic Church?

The answer

Yes, but we recognise it as being a “Catholic” marriage, or a “Protestant” marriage. But if intermarriage with a Coptic person occurs, the couple then must enter Orthodoxy through the door of baptism and the sacraments.
