  • [quote author=ophadece link=topic=10278.msg125354#msg125354 date=1293300321] At the very least may they use genuine Coptic letters to write a proper Coptic word, not for decoration! [/quote] I used to not like that one time... but seriously who car…
  • It's just simple to say continue fasting with the rest of the church. Also, the typical suggestion would be to discuss this with your confession father. Cheers
  • I guess I can say I have seen the power of prayer many times over.. just gonna share some memorable experiences of mine... One major event was my dads miracle by Abu Seifein and Tamav.... there was a major amount of prayer and fasting for that! I'…
  • From what I know, Copts can receive Communion in other OO Churches only and only if there is no Coptic Church around. Copts should not receive communion in Catholic Churches. I know an Armenian Orthodox family who attend the Coptic church only.. bu…
  • I have the Doxology on a scanned pdf file....
  • I thinks it's like the same reason why EVERYONE has to go to church on Sundays. It's a communal thing. Cheers
  • I agree with Fr. Peter mainly.. I don't think sin can be inherited... but usually what you group up with, and mainly as a kid, you would see grown ups and parents do certain things that may be good or bad and kids usually follow as they get older. …
  • lol if there even was such a thing as an unknown hymn, there would be the questions of when to sing it! Cheers
  • [quote author=Zoxsasi link=topic=10132.msg124527#msg124527 date=1292369163] [quote author=marym2 link=topic=10132.msg123713#msg123713 date=1291680399] Hello all! I just wanted to share something really amazing that happened to my family 3 years ago…
  • I very much enjoy listening to the Priests of my church in Sydney... Mostly, Fr. Yacoub Magdy.... One of his awesome sermons are here http://www.coyasydney.org/modules/tmd_downloads/singlefile.php?cid=14&lid=57 which is only a small example of h…
  • [quote author=Zoxsasi link=topic=10186.msg124482#msg124482 date=1292349019] Why didnt you get an iPhone? [/quote] HAHA, Problem Solved! Or, be simple and use books :) I've had no phone for 6 months now, and I chose not to upgrade or put credit and…
  • I actually have a few questions of my own regarding Amdah Fel Batool which I may know some answers but not confirmed... 1. What is the history of this hymn? When, where and who wrote it? 2. Was it written in arabic? (And that's why there's no Copti…
  • I think its okay to use your iPhone to read the readings as it is said... who said it's wrong to do whatever you can to understand what's going on? In fact, I think it's SO important to know what the Gospel read is about every time you go to the Lit…
  • [quote author=minagir link=topic=10159.msg124309#msg124309 date=1292063219] and Oseya? a lost hymn in tune.....but the text is there: http://tasbeha.org/hymn_library/view/1497 [/quote] What? How did you get text for a hymn without the tune!? Do …
  • [quote author=CopticStrength link=topic=10132.msg124321#msg124321 date=1292076231] Haha....wow. I made it confusing!  :o  I get it now. Thanks for the clarification! Both Saints are just miraculous. May their blessing be with us all. Whenever you…
  • [quote author=ilovesaintmark link=topic=10150.msg124263#msg124263 date=1292007260] Don't do it. [/quote] Do what? Activate it?... I won't, don't worry... unless I wanna stalk someone.. lol
  • [quote author=CopticStrength link=topic=10132.msg124272#msg124272 date=1292013953] I read Tamav Erinie's life story which is book 1 and then I skipped to book 3 which is called God Loves Me (Part III) and its ALL about Philopater Mercurius's (Abu Se…
  • Can you post them lyric here in this thread? Thanks
  • Hey coptic youth, I'm curious to know how you went about sending this miracle? Any news? Cheers
  • I think one thing that's very important is associating your fasting with prayer, for fasting without prayer can be almost meaningless. Usually if you already do pray normally, fasting or not, we're usually told by our confession fathers to do someth…
  • This isn't much of a blooper, but it's hilarious to see some deacons wearing tonias that are a few sizes smaller and therefore reaches their knees and just touches their elbows...
  • Touch wood - I know that "Touch wood" when hearing of something bad is referring to the Cross because it was wood.... lol I remember saying "Touch Wood" a lot in high school, and then we'd end up banging on the desks at school and having fun lol... …
  • Okay, well the reason why I deactivated is truly unintentional and from God (lol). I've always had the problem of wasting so much time on it, as much as I found facebook to be boring in itself, I used to close the window, and when I couldn't study …
  • A few of my friends and I who have deactivated Facebook call it "the Devil" :P
  • I don't know about you all, but i find it very difficult to refer to Holy Spirit as "He"... Is my above sentence correct... do I not include "the" in front of "Holy Spirit"? Does it make sense? I think if I replaced "Holy Spirit" with "Jesus" it wo…
  • Okay, okay I will share it so that God's name can be glorified more. But not now because it's pretty long and I need to be awake for this because the usually I take 10 minutes to explain to friends and a few times I forgot to mention the main part …
  • [quote author=TITL link=topic=10148.msg124089#msg124089 date=1291858945] I do have friends, just not from school. Non-Coptic folks make lousy friends. They're a headache, stomachache and timeache. [/quote] Yes, same here... But I still think it's …
  • [quote author=TITL link=topic=10144.msg124084#msg124084 date=1291858497] He tells me to pray about everything...LOL but that's pretty much it. There is no greater advice. [/quote] Agreed.
  • [quote author=TITL link=topic=10148.msg124057#msg124057 date=1291856598] I do not have friends because I do not want friends. If I wanted friends, they would be standing by lines waiting for me to befriend them. I do not think friendship is import…
  • I think now is the perfect time to quote Seinfeld... Elaine "I will never understand people" Jerry "They're the worst"! My favourite Seinfeld quote ever :)
