  • Its not that difficult, its like any other language, ask anyone at church who is willing to teach you, if you can find any childrens books in arabic to help you learn and just keep practicing. The fact you can speak it already gives you an advantage.
  • Whether you say Amouini or tenousht on saturday, if you do either one, does it add or take away from the spirituality of the service in any way? No I don't think so, When it comes to really big things I agree with you Fady, but let me ask you someth…
  • Yeah when she was alive
  • [quote author=PaNo5 link=topic=9306.msg114955#msg114955 date=1275487557] As I've heard, Angels got no repentance, because they've seen God and they have lived within him in his Glory. Instead, man, hasn't seen God nor lived within his kingdom. [/qu…

  • The story is in fact true however I don't think it was necessarily for 40 minutes. I knew tamav and she told us about it herself, but I don't know about the books. I doubt she would have written about it. When it happened the story made it into the …
  • The BOC is a daughter church to the COC, their patriarch is HH Pope shenouda as well. Same exact belief, just different liturgy
  • If you are old enough and in college you may want to consider the midwest convention either this summer or in the fall or winter. Those are always beneficial and fun.

  • They won't change their ways and they have no salvation. Its the same concept as if you ask after you die and realize you wasted your life in sin can we repent then and say oh wait I made a mistake forgive me now after the fact. No of course not, yo…

  • [quote author=DimyanCoptic link=topic=9286.msg114930#msg114930 date=1275440487] I'm not really sure how to clarify lol  ??? but why did Jesus ascend? if it is not a physical place "above the clouds", if you will? Wouldnt he have just disappear? [/q…

  • Original rites say you say tenousht saturday night and amouini sunday morning, however more recently, HG Bishop serapion of the LA diocese has said that since it is the vespers of sunday we say amouini.
  • You say everything for all 3 feasts.
  • Its the same as Aretenthonti not tentheeno
  • This is a fraud that happened a few years ago, this is not HH pope kyrillos.
  • They are not physical places. They are beyond the physical realm of the universe.

  • Tamgeeds in general shouldn't be done during communion. The right place would be after the synixar before Agios.
  • Does anyone know where I can obtain a recording of this liturgy(video preferably) anywhere online??
  • The length of the fast varies from year to year, because the date of the Resurrection changes. The apostles feast is a set date(12th of July) so if Pentecost comes early then we fast until then. The apostles fast if I am not mistaken is actually the…
  • These are the rites: As for the Divine Liturgy of the Feast of the Pentecost, it begins with the Agpeya prayer of the Third Hour only, followed by the Gospel, but without praying the litanies. The Lamb is offered while the congregation chants [copt…
  • Pentecost and annual psali's
  • I would like this link as well please! Also does anyone know of any bishops who might be ordained tomorrow?
  • Father Peter, Regarding there being a deficiency with theology and patristic writings among the coptic church,  I entirely agree with you. However, first and foremost it is because of a lack of resources. The Coptic church is not a wealthy church i…
  • The order in brief would be, Resurrection, Ascension, Pentecost(You could do just pentecost if you are strapped for time), St Mary, Archangel Michael then the rest of the doxologies you usually do. No you shouldn't do the tasbeha in the rite of pent…
  • Father Peter, Unfortunately google books doesn't provide the entire book, only the first few chapters. It cuts off before chapter 10.
  • Cantor is just a title given to well known deacons/teachers, every person who has an actual rank is part of the deaconate regardless of being called a cantor or not. There isn't a separation between the two, you don't stop being a deacon if you are …
  • Ibrahim Ayad is only a Reader by level, but he is known as the popes deacon/cantor.
  • Refer to this topic: http://tasbeha.org/content/community/index.php?topic=5449.0 C.) Aaron and the children of Israel were punished. They spent 40 years in the wilderness because of their sins and none of the original Israelites entered the promise…
  • Guys show a little respect, the voice doesn't mean anything.
  • [quote author=ilovesaintmark link=topic=9158.msg114213#msg114213 date=1273275738] If there are "toll houses", does that mean that there is an "E-Z Pass"? [/quote] Lol..Martyrdom
