الكنيسة المريمية

3, دمشق

What to expect on a first visit

الكنيسة المريمية describes itself: “Website dedicated to Our Lady of Soufanieh.” Expect ancient liturgy engaging all the senses — chant, incense, and icons. Much of the congregation stands, and people come and go quietly during the long service; arriving mid-liturgy is normal and unremarkable. Expect hymns with choir or organ.
