If I'm understanding correctly, it probably has something to do with the way your browser is configured to handle mp3 files (to play them in the browser instead of downloading them).
You can just do File --> Save (or CTRL+S) when you're on the …
I have no idea of the source or anything - someone sent it to me this week for the HH's feast
But if anyone knows the source/has it in English that'd be great! Lol
Indeed, the rite put forth by Albair is approved by the Synod. To be more specific, this entire glorification book was approved by the committee of rites and hymns of the Holy Synod:

I don't have what you're looking for, but I'd like to offer an idea: Try also searching Canadian churches. I believe some churches in Canada use French along with English and they may have better resources
If you have a smart phone (iPhone or Android) you can download Coptic Reader (which is a digital form of HG Bishop Youssef's Baptism book).
The Android one has been out for a while, and the iPhone one is coming soon (if it's not out already).
At our church we chant it in the more common tune, and then we chant it in the annual tune in English. This is to accommodate our English-only speakers. I don't see a problem with chanting it both ways just because the common way isn't that long.
I don't have Windows 8, but I can tell you after installing Coptic Fonts Standard it didn't work for me (the past 3-4 times I've done it).
You'll need the Athanasious fonts.
You can get them here:

Lol Math is my thing, and I'm also a grammar Nazi
Just wish my reading comprehension was up to that level. This was like 5 years ago though lol I'm sure the SAT has changed
I'm actually the opposite! I got perfect scores on Math and Writing but the reading I got like a 590 or something.
My advice to you: Do a bunch of math problems from that book. If you find one you can't do, or if you find one that takes you a long …

The way I see it, the Gospel response Je Peniwt is the perfect response to the Gospel of the Sunday before Lent.
If you remember, the Gospel is the one where our Lord Jesus Christ tells the people "when you pray, say Our Father Who is in Heaven, Ha…

You can also direct him to CopticWorld.com where he can contact many priests/bishops, and see where churches are around the world.
I also know a priest who served in Kenya before coming to the states. His name is Fr. Moussa Shafik

I recommend starting with the liturgy hymns. They will have many chances to say these hymns every week, and it will encourage them to sing along. They will get used to participating. Start the liturgy hymns off easy in English/Arabic so they aren't …
I think Vespers is still considered the day before. Because even the Vespers Praise (before Vespers) is prayed in the Watos tune (when it's Saturday). We say the Watos Psalis, the Saturday Theotokia, chant the Watos Antiphonarium, and the Watos Conc…

HG Bishop Youssef (SUS) at my church this past week told us of his future plans and hopes/wishes to restore the ranks of the deaconate. This includes ordaining full deacons, sub deacons, and making sure that Readers and Chanters do what their rank e…
"The priest has a responsibility to the spiritual aspects of the church (confession, sermons, etc.) whereas the deacon has a responsibility to the administrative aspects of the church." - (HG Bishop Youssef (SUS)) He takes it as a full time job, and…
I believe the Gregorian Liturgy has:
"Have mercy upon us O God, our Savior" x3
and the Cyrillian Liturgy has:
"Have mercy upon us O God, the Father, the Pantocrator" x3
So I suppose when we chant it in the Basillian Liturgy, we combine :P
