  • lol, yah such a coincidence ::) :P
  • To make things even more complicated, ask urselves: do we inherit the GUILT of the sin of Adam, as if we ate ourselves from the forbidden fruit? I always thought no, but i got really confused when i noticed this part from the Gregorian Liturgy: You …
  • haha, u find it fantastic that u can eat fish huh :P yah, me too, fishsticks all the way ;D but seriously, blessed nativity fast to all. That we may all find it a good opportunity to grow spiritually (we probably need it really bad after this very …
  • yup, except for wednesdays and fridays
  • Did Jesus ever say he loved us?. Never it is through his actions that he showed that he loved us. aywa bezaaaaaaaaabt yardyakka, that's an excellent point.
  • Loving God is an action, something you do and show, and not just something you say. By standing and praising God u show your love, which is 100000000% better than keep saying that you love God without showing love. I think that having such emotiona…
  • U know.. i don't know how u guys turned out soo holy and good growing up in Amsterdam. In fact, your group must have impressed me the most from the youth i've met from the Coptic Church living outside Egypt. wow really? lol, we hear that more often…
  • try saintmina http://www.saintmina-holmdel.org/Multimedia/index.php go to "songs" and when u scroll down u'll find some hymns for St Mary.
  • haha, vassilio, i guess u never been to amsterdam before huh ;) speaking of being exposed to bad images :o but seriously, i agree with this whole bad influence for little kids thing. It's ironic how in Egypt u see along the road posters with "alla…
  • put them on your mp3 player and listen to them all day instead of other crap music ;)
  • i don't think he ever recorded these hymns, you may want to get yourself the tapes with the Kiahk Vesper praise, i dont know what exactly was recorded on those (you may find the tar7 and ali el asr). As for all kiahk hymns for midnight/vesper prais…
  • ya, u can find it here under annual hymns by Ibrahim Ayad => congregation responses. Search for psalm 150, he says it with the long end ;)
  • 19, 2nd year Medicin, likewise in A'dam. Marian, waz wrong with Bio ;D
  • Here is the coptic txt for both the first and fourth week of Kiahk. The link for the audio has been given as well. I encourage everyone to start introducing these forgotten responses in their own churches again, after getting approval from both pri…
  • The 2 gospel responses are the "populair practise". However, even HICS recorded 4 Gospel responses, so it really is an "official" response. The problem is that its not written in any Hymns book except the new one by Albair. Same goes for the "Mohay…
  • Khaberni ya Yo7ana ;) U can find it in english too: O tell me John. Ur rite, this song is really cool ;D
  • I think there's like a big differentiation between what we chant during the Liturgy (ie Tasbeha/pascha hymns/regular mass hymns) etc. and any spiritual songs that we chant during meetings etc. The coptic hymns of the Liturgical services dont change…
  • Thanks, i'll try to find time to read it the coming days!
  • I know this is a very complicated subject, and i also know that the Tome of Leo was one of the major issues. So to have more firsthand information, in order to have a sound view - can we post the Tome of Leo for instance, and examine/discuss it (es…
  • I agree with Orthodox11 especially the part about the beards. I mean, i'm looked at as muslim everywhere i go to, should i have a skin transplantation and colour my hair blond, because of xenophobia in the west?? if a priest wears a huge cross on …
  • you heard that vassilios? :P Outsiders seem to appreciate our coptic hymns than our youth ;D welcome to the site Ahikar :)
  • My first point in response to ur post is that i really really dont understand ur problem with using the coptic tunes for other txt's. I just don't get it, i heard a lot of coptic hymns in french, and its just awesome, especially certain languages as…
  • ma3alena, i think my first hymn was ke eperto, me and the other guys were the first group of young deacons to chant the psalm in its melismatic way, so yah, the whole congregation was really proud of us ;D
  • I dont know about these tapes, i heard they aren't as complete as Muallim Gad's vesper praise tapes (ie only mo'akkab and romi) and the way its sung is identical to M. Gad's way. Personally, for Vesper praise and midnight hymns i learn them from M. …
  • i know, thats why the :P do u concider all hymns of the liturgy to be responses then? What is ur defenition of "hymn" ;)
  • well, he kind of did. of course i think he have new stuff that are updated(not all are on tasbeha.org because they are in fact differnt). but i know he did 4 tapes for kiahk. if you wanna get them, great. but i still wanna say that you'll be shocked…
