[quote author=Father Peter link=topic=10602.msg129383#msg129383 date=1296637126] there are many issues we are facing within the church before we can really say we need to go out and preach and focus on some sort of out reach program. A church withou…

Thank You aiernovi! Thats exactly what i was thinking, u read my mind. Romans 8:26 is a very interesting verse. H.H Pope Shenouda III says to "pray with understanding, with depth, with zeal...", so shouldn't this also be applied to praising God. Sh…

I can't help but wonder, why is it that Hill-song Church can have 10,000+ people turn up in one of their gathering (where they do all their singing business), yet we struggle to get 100 people to turn up to youth meeting (on a friday night)??? What…

ST Basil Liturgy by Fr Boula Melek Prt1 : http://www.megaupload.com/?d=JWHLPXXC Prt 2: http://www.megaupload.com/?d=I8P31N5I IN terms of spirituality, this could be a starting point: http://www.orthodoxebooks.org/node/74

Hey ophadece, Forgive me, and thanks for the update, last thing i heard was that they were getting a bomb technician and he going to make the ruling. About the bomb at El Minia church, i heard that it was behind the altar? Bit of topic but i thin…

Is this Abu Sefien Church?
-
Fr Boula Melek!!! As if no one has heard him before, here is a peak: If anyone wants his full masses (Basilian, Gregorian, and Cyrillic) pm me, the recordings have a better quality than the video.

hi, Actually 4 Coptic families have been affected in Brisbane (where the floods are) news reports say that 10 people are confirmed dead with 80 people missing and don't even get started with property damage. But thank God no one from the coptic com…

http://tasbeha.org/content/community/index.php/topic,10274.0.html The devil is very crafty like that, the minute he sees you fighting, fasting and praying against a particular sin he will leave that sin alone completely (for the time being, so that…

I was in the same position as you, but you have to realise that "everything works well for those who love the Lord". But if things do not work out our way, we get angry and frustrated and think that God has abandoned us. However we sometimes fail t…

wait a second, i thought that st. marks wrote the original liturgy and then the basilian, gregorian and the st cyril litrugies were all derived from the liturgy st marks wrote. Correct?? please remember me in your prayers

Hi nnelly, I was looking through some ebooks, and found this really good book, by H.H Pope Shenouda titled, "Calmness". It is a really helpful book and very thorough: http://www.orthodoxebooks.org/node/9 If your time is scarce, then u might want …

Hello I would just like to quote some people: "God is merciful before a fall, inexorable after - so the demons say." The Ladder of Divine Ascent (by John Climacus) This means that God the almighty is ALL merciful BEFORE & AFTER a fall. "B…

Fr. Boula Melek... really nice

I was digging through some old stuff, and i found some GOLD files! Does anyone know a good way of sharing these audio files apart from megaupload.com, how can i post stuff on tasbeha.org Also does anyone know if Higher Institute Of Coptic Studies (H…

One of my personal favourite is Fr Boula Melek (Any of his masses are beautiful), he has an ANGELIC voice!! also the late Fr Estefanos Rezk & Fr. Barsoum Shaker.
-
MAN THATS ABOUNA YASSA RISKK!!!! (well at least the first priest) This is one of the old priests, but he has a godly voice. His voice is soo similar to the late H.G. Bishop Daniel of Khartoum (who is by the way a SAINTT). If anyone want the full …

or better yet just read the book "The Angels" by H.H Pope SHenouda lll: http://www.zeitun-eg.net/members_contrib/PopeShenoudaIII_TheANGELS.pdf. Sorry for only giving you reference. PPFM

Pardon my ignorance, but who is Cantor Mikhail El batanoony. There was one stage there were alot of hymns (i.e the tunes/hazzat) that were some how lost. So there was a Cantor that had a gift of being able to fit the correct musical note(s) into a …
-
thank you ophadece, your explanation was nicely put... things make sense now. What your saying is logical and sounds right, but sadly alot of deacons in my church still just sing psalm 150 and begin chanting the all these arabic melodies/hymns. P…
-
Thats another thing, are we allowed to chant these arabic melodies during Holy Communion. On this tuesday's mass the leading deacon sang 'I Praise the Virgin' hymn (Am-dah-fil-batool), and at the end of the mass this lady comes to the front of the c…

I actually like HCOC, they have some really good lessons that show the proper hazat. [quote author=TITL link=topic=10167.msg124378#msg124378 date=1292248536] CIA[sup]©[/sup] [/quote] LOL :D On a seperate note, i think the coptic church should …

Awwww... so Epi Pros-evKHee Sta-thee-te is greek. Does that mean that Epi Pros-evSHee Sta-thee-te is Coptic? because thats what i hear C.I.A saying.

"I may not know what the future holds. But i know who hold the future" Its not by an orthodox father, but it just gives us hope.

I can't remember the exact quote, it was said by one of the desert fathers. It was something along these lines: For we are not the initiators of our thoughts, but we are to fight them. Another one i really like is by H.H. Pope Shenouda "Happiness…

LOL... but i have to admit it does seem like an island (but a BIG ISLAND), because it is so isolated from everything else. The closest country to it is 7 hours- by plane

[quote author=ilovesaintmark link=topic=9882.msg121165#msg121165 date=1287757309] How can it be a continent when it is an island? I think, like Pluto having been removed as a planet-label, Australia should be removed as a continent. [/quote] I kno…
