All the tunes are the same as annual except for Tenoweh ensok-doxologies which can either be said in the mohayar tune of lent or the same tune as the sherat and of course the lent tune for the verses after. Here is the sherat tune: http://www.coptic…

I would say the ultimate way to avoid temptation is to be humble. Humility is a virtue that will protect you from temptation.
Running away from sin is humility. The reason …
The best way to overcome temptations is to run away from the source of temptation. Figure out what exactly is the source that is causing you to be tempted and stay away from it. You have to remember, the saints where humans, the only difference betw…

The tune of the anaphora and the prayer of reconciliation where taken from st. Gregory's liturgy. Actually most of the liturgy was mat-rakeb from the tunes of St. Gregory's. The litanies of this liturgy are safe to say the way he recorded them since…
How is it not sad? Think of all the people mislead by what he's done and think how mislead and trapped by the devil he is. Just because he's done wrong and gotten his judgement by God to be punished doesn't make it any better.
The Lord repose his soul in the paradise of joy, out of which mourning, grief and sorrow have fled. May God console his family and parish. Paradise is for sure rejoicing. May God make us worthy to one day enter into His promises.
God Bless and Pray…
The only thing you can do is really just pray for him, if his mind is set you won't be able to change it. Let God do his work and take care of His lost son. He could have went through a rough patch and felt God abandoned him or never answered his pr…
Monks(unless they are ordained priests) shouldn't be taking confessions at all. But I've always heard that monks who are priests as well can only take confession from men. I know that some monks where FOC's of nuns but concerning people in general I…

You pretty much answered your own question.. try asking if you can get an older servant to teach (or supervise) your class. I also recommend trying to toughen up…
yeah thats right, eshyl evlogison is for only another priest serving with one. While eshlyl evlogite is for more than one priest serving besides the priest saying that. If that makes sense, evlogite and evlogison refer to the "conjugation" for a lac…
If you go to copticheritage.org they have a rites encyclopedia, and coptichymns.net has articles on the history of some hymns, but how reliable those articles are as sources i'm not sure.
I don't know what you mean by your last statement, but there is a difference in saying carry original sin and carrying a corrupt nature due to it. I'm just stating a misconception. You will not find anywhere in our church that we say we carry the or…
We carry the consequence of original sin, but not the sin itself, to say that is heretical and I don't know what church you've gone to, but the COC doesn't believe in us carrying the original sin, but the corrupt nature. This is a misconception in t…

Well you came to the right website to learn alhan and hymns. Abouna says Eshlyl evlogison when there is another priest serving with him asking for his blessings and eshlyl evlogite for more than one priest.
To be honest its really none of your business to get involved, if they have an issue or a doubt they themselves will ask abouna, but don't ask for them. When you get involved like that(without their permission) only problems arise even though your i…
