When I saw this, the first person that came to mind was Pope Kyrillos VI. I also believe it is what Je Nai nan posted. I posted a picture about a month ago asking what it was here: http://tasbeha.org/content/community/index.php/topic,13856.msg161085…

I hear rumors that he has sever medical problems is that true?

NOOOO. Not true. I don't know why people talk about priests in their free time. He just has weak eyes an…
Well some background about him, he has been a priest for 32 years. His 32nd anniversary is actually today. He is a priest at Saint Mary Church of East Brunswick, NJ and has been since 1999. Up until 3 years ago, he was the eldest priest for about 1.…
That is Abouna Barsoum Shaker. His brother is our "head leader deacon" in our church. One liturgy is here: http://saint-mary.net/hymnology/divine_liturgies/st_gregory/
I am not sure what you are asking but it seems like you are addicted to porn and trying to stop? Let me offer you some advice. My friend had the same problem and I helped him. I told him to make the wallpaper of any device he watches porn on the cru…
Mabsoota, I understand what you are saying. My church now has a liturgy just for English people, directed to converts. All the hymns are in English. Alleluia, the hiteniet, agios, everything! They don't say the Long Psalm 150 intro, they say amen a…

Pi-oik eh bas? One time, a friend and I decided to sing "Kata Nikhoros" during Sunday in the 50 days, and Abouna turned at us (with the angriest face physically pos…

If you look at the pictures of HH or at videos of the enthronement, they put three necklaces on him. I see them on other Orthodox Patriarchs but never on Pope Shenouda. Why didn't Pope Shenouda wear them and what do they represe…

Food doesn't have anything to do with rites. Although we're fasting first-degree in Lent, we celebrate a major Lordly feast in Palm Sunday. Kiahk hymns were made for Kiahk,…

some bishops do wear their 'emma all the time and in liturgy they were a 'shammla' over it. I think I saw Anba Besanti do that and Anba Michael....maybe more out there.

His name is Tawadros! Just leave it at that. You don't call someone named Kyrillos, Cyril! His name is Tawadros and Theodorus is in a different language.
Does this mean that HG Anba Rofail is still a candidate? I read an article a few days ago saying that him and HG Anba Kyrillos of Milan dropped out for health reasons,
Aktonk- Everyday during the Holy 50 Days, Every Sunday from Pentecost until Kiahk and the 29th of Every Month (Aktonk usually overrides other occasions. For example, if there is a funeral or wedding during the Holy 50 days, you say aktonk. Also, you…
I wonder the same thing. Raising of Vesper incense is part of the liturgy so it should be following the rite of that liturgy. For example, if the Feast of the Transfiguration is tomorrow, we would pray festive tune and the rites for the feast. But …

A contemplation I heard goes like this. The tune of Palm Sunday is a royal tune. Where the people glorified him as the king. El sha3anini, lah melooky. Hope you guys un…
I don't think there was a ban, I think it was a restriction that the only liturgies that can be prayed are Saint Basil's, Saint Cyril's and Saint Gregory's. I heard a liturgy from 1982 that had an anaphora for Saint Mary. The Ethiopian Anaphoras are…
Yes. Only during Palm Sunday. Hossana not only means praise to you or a form of praise, but also means save us/deliver us/watch over us (in arabic it is Hosh 3ana) so it is fitting.
