  • Not that i know of, I didn't see them doing crosses but its something you can always ask once you are there.
  • The monastary in Texas is amazing, very peaceful and on a lake and has a great bookstore/library you can PM as well if you have questions but im sure I'm all yours O Lord can answer better than me since he/she visited more recently
  • Well it makes sense depending on what time you do vespers. However i've heard that vespers is seperate from the actual liturgy and isn't part of it or the beginning of it. So parts of it stay with the rites of the day and some go to the rites of sun…
  • Welcome! I am looking forward to your participation, hopefully we can all learn something from you.
  • Great question(lol you always have the tough ones) here is a sermon that i think can help you in your contemplations. Enjoy: http://www.coloradocopts.org/index.php?option=com_docman&task=doc_download&gid=169&Itemid=207 God Bless and Pra…

  • Hey, There is also Two Thousand Years of Coptic Christianity by Otto F. A. Meinardus and i agree with Taishory with Father Tadros' book. There is also the school of alexandria before and after origin(I don't think this applies very much, but it was …
  • As far as I've been taught that when we say envy in the thanksgiving prayer we are referring to ALL envy, ALL temptation, ALL the works of satan. So not only from people from the the devil too, you have to remember, that the devil will be envious of…
  • I don't disagree with you at all, forgive me if that's how I came off. I think we need HH to a great a extent and without him we will be lost. God preserve his life many years and peaceful times on his throne for us. All i was saying that even thoug…
  • It is in real coptic, do you have those fonts installed on your pc? Its coming up as real coptic on my screen
  • I think what you are doing is honorable for HH but misplaced, i don't think you can compare anyone to HH, that is why he is HH. But on the same token you only hurt him by speaking this way about him. You will cause envy in the devil and his temptati…
  • Lol its in pascha section of the hymns library here you go:[coptic]Eulogite pantata erga@ Kuri`e ton Kurion `umnite@ ke `uperu'ote auton@ ic touc `e`wnac.[/coptic]

  • Here you go: In the midst of the raging sea There I was sailing The waves were pounding me Making me afraid And it seems That Christ has left me I no longer see Him, Because of my weak faith Refrain: Jesus when He saw me Came to me quickly In my …
  • I think the word you are looking for is concubine
  • Its annual tune...there are also hymns like Ontos and enthoten ze and of course niromi
  • Its actually the refrain of the third hoos that you can find here: http://tasbeha.org/media/index.php?s=Hymns/Other_Occasions/Bright_Saturday/Ibrahim_Ayad/Part_1/05.Third_Hoos.mp3
  • No I don't think so, i think they are two different monks
  • Mina is right, everything has limits, even this site should, if this site takes you away from doing things that are more important then you should get off of it, or if it takes you away from time you could spend reading the Bible or praying you shou…

  • I agree with QT, some people have issues that are medical or genetic and find themselves naturally overweight without eating unhealthy or abnormally on their part. I'm sure lack of exercise is an issue too but at the same time there are some who eat…
  • This is what I've always been taught by the head deacons in the church, I don't have a source for it anymore, suscopts deacon site used to have the psalms listed but it seems to be down.
  • Sure my mistake, Psalm 26(27) "The Lord is my light..." to be said when you wake up, 46(47)"Oh Clap your hands...", 28(29) "Bring to the Lord...", 92(93)"The Lord reigns"(which is also said when wearing vestments), are to be said on the way to chu…
  • Lol who doesn't like this forum!? haha If you have lack of time management skills, the only way to really gain better skills is to practice and learn how to manage your time wisely. So if you have homework, write what you need to down, then one by o…

  • Actually aidan, There are psalms that are to be said when we wake up, on our way to church, as we walk into church and as we bow infront of the alter. (there are of course psalms said while wearing our vestments) I know for those who serve as deacon…
  • Well first thing is get off this forum. lol Just kidding. Just manage your time better, is it that you have a lot of free time or does it come down to laziness about doing other tasks? If its the first, then maybe pick up your Bible read some spirit…

  • Actually the coptic church does exactly what you said, touch each others hands (finger tips) and then kiss our own hands that touched theirs

  • Adderol or pills of the like, are meant for people with ADD and ADHD. If you take them without having ADD or ADHD you can disturb the chemistry in your brain and like others have said they will become addictive and you won't be able to function with…
