  • [quote author=minatasgeel link=topic=14524.msg165358#msg165358 date=1373072131] I don't see any issues with what i said. deacons do not NEED to know how to play the cymbals. that is simple to understand. If you don't know how or you are not picking …
  • Hey Pachom, totally disregard mina's response. It was blunt, rude, and unhelpful. My advice is to keep practicing at home until you can competently chant and play at the same time. When I taught myself how to play the cymbals years back, I kept pra…
  • Well I am glad you found one  :D
  • Okay, I just did a quick google search and found this: http://www.coptic.org/language/bible/bible.htm It didn't display in the right font for me but it's probably right for you if you have the coptic font. . But it isn't a pdf so i will keep loo…
  • Yes I remember there is a pdf of the Coptic Bible. I don't remember exactly where it is, but I will try to find it again and get you the link.
  • Well, that's not too bad of a drive. You can go like once a month to confess to that Abouna over there and see if you like him better for confession. You don't really need to have a relationship with that church to be able to confess. You can call t…
  • Are there other churches or priests in the area?
  • In the book of James it tells us to confess our sins to one another. That's why the idea of confession exists. As for confessing to a priest: It is part of the priest's job to take confessions. You aren't confessing to him and he isn't the one forgi…
  • So nobody has the answer?

  • What about when our Lord Jesus told Simon Peter and the disciples to keep a secret that he was the Son of God? Wouldn't the devil hear this and know? Really good question by the way GodLovesMe, it has been a really long time since I have seen a no…

  • This is very nice. Thank you. I was looking for the liturgy of St. Basil, sorry for not initially stating it.

  • There is a lot of people who can't read musical notation, but there some on the David Ensemble website if that is what suits your fancy.
  • [quote author=mabsoota link=topic=14293.msg163616#msg163616 date=1362422458] hazzat maps always leave me confused, i suppose because i have not seen how they are used. can someone please send a link to 'tai shory' (the only hymn i know reasonably we…
  • [quote author=guy link=topic=14293.msg163595#msg163595 date=1362214794] I personally, don't like this teaching style. I'm a big fan of having a person listen to the hym at least 100 times. [/quote] Most people don't have that much time to dedicate …

  • [quote author=pharoh123 link=topic=14267.msg163519#msg163519 date=1361750131] What are you talking about? I agree completely with geomike. 2 young men were just severely mutilated and killed and we are here talking about women who forgot to cover t…
  • irishpilgrim, you are really one piece of work. I stop taking your posts seriously, all my respect for you is slowly going out the window with each post. I honestly just can't keep arguing with you because you might be familiar with the saying, "Don…
  • So two young men in their twenties were shot and killed and then their bodies were severely mutilated and you have the audacity right now to ask why the womens' heads aren't covered in their funeral? You are kidding me right? Honestly, I have seen …

  • I know you have good intentions and you are doing an admirable thing that I wish more people would do, but when you say "Ignorance from both sides" it offends me. It offends me because the Coptic Orthodox Christians are more than happy to deal with …
