  • lol now this is even funnier.. it turns out shes older than me.. im crushed hahaha
  • if you read the context of the hymn it would make a lot more sense.. like in Kiahk we say a lot of hymns about the Archangel Gabriel coming to St. Mary to give her the good news.. we do not worship angels or saints, but rather we thank them, and pra…

  • and regarding your question about the Power of the Sign of the Cross, read this: http://www.copticchurch.net/synaxarium/8_23.html#1 it is the story of the Martyrdom of St. George. The third paragraph is about the Power of the Sign of the Cross. ple…
  • who said only Orthodox Christians make the Sign of the Cross?? i went to catholic school for elementary school and high school and they always did the Sign of the Cross.  I think even protestants do the sign of the Cross so its not just us.. its all…

  • how can you hate people who God, the creator or everything, loves? even though they deny Christ and His Salvation for us. Thats why we call Him the "Lover of Mankind", not just the lover of Christians! i'll admit i'm not exactly a fan of islam to sa…

  • please continue to pray for me.. i need as many prayers as i can get. im still struggling with this sin unfortunately.
  • Whenever i am about to fall into sin, i think of Christ and all that he has done for me. If we commit sins, its just like another thorn in Christ's head, or another nail.. whenever you feel like you are about to fall into sin, say Psalm 23 (The Lord…
  • They should just do some parts in arabic, some in coptic, and some in english. Thats what we do in my church and in a lot of churches in the US.  Its not such a big problem like u think. just convince some people in your church (peers, parents) to t…
