You might want to go to their website which i can't remember at the moment and add yourself to the mailing list from there.

yes very sorry chrismation is the word I meant to put sorry again
-
Its literal dictionary meaning is "that which is confirmed; verification." but in the church it is when you are anointed with the myron and the Holy Spirit comes and dwells inside you which every baptized person has and it is that you are being acce…

Yes, but the correct term is confirmation
-
His Servant i must respectfully disagree with you, whether you have sources or not you do not a have a valid source(to me at least which i am sure does not mean much) if you are going to source anybody you should source somebody such as Anba Youseff…

That sounds familiar to me but i was watching the ordination of HG the late anba Karas and it was only HH who laid his hand on him but all the bishops blessed his vestments so i'm not quite sure but i think you are correct
-
Just as matt said, a bishop is a priestly rank and is in fact a part of the priesthood as is the pope. but the bishop is ordained by the pope and their for has the laying of hands and is given the gift to ordain(a priest has the laying of hands as w…

the prayers of the saints be with them and you

minagir is right, you can't take the times literally although that is what they used to do in older times and would spend saturday night through most of sunday praying and doing the liturgy with some breaks in between vespers and tasbeha and such

I also suggest this entire track with anba youseff and the nj deacons its really good and includes the long aripresvavin http://tasbeha.org/mp3/Hymns/Other_Occasions/Glorification_for_Saint_Mary/Bishop_Youssef_at_St_Mark,_Jersey_City,_NJ.html

when some one becomes a monk he can't necesarly do a liturgy, that is for monks who are priests as well. but a regular monk is not a part of the priesthood because he doesn't do any priestly functions. second thing i would like to mention is that an…

Because it was through the cross that He was glorified and through the cross we cannot be defeated. demons flee from its sign and cannot be near it. why well i suggest you read "On the Incarnation" by St. Athanasius the apostlic here is the link htt…

No they are real creatures, in an icon you can see them literally carrying the throne of God, we would not ask for their intercessions if we did not believe they were real in the doxologies. Here is a pic. http://www.anchorite.org/blog/wp-content/up…

I seriously doubt that the earth will last that long to a point where it will be clashing with good friday or easter and if it is the case the Holy Synod can just secure the date to January 7 each year
-
well you could always ask you FOC what do with it i'm sure he can help much more than anyone here can help you because he knows you much better. but since you did ask here is my humble opinion. Read a little bit of the Bible and write your thoughts …
-
Yes they are real creatures and they carry the throne of God, one has the face of a lion, one has the face of an eagle, one the face of a calf, and the last has a face of a human. each interceding on our behalf and for the sake of the agriculture an…
-
Actually minagir is correct, we say the Begining for the actual day but the rest is for the next day like saturday nights we say Tenosht and not amoini
-
I think if i may say this that you are thinking to deeply on this. when i read what you posted i thought maybe its because the cymbals and the triangle sound like bells when played (sort of) or it is possible that they rang the church bells when thi…

The best and most important thing to do is pray. and when you pray always say According to Your Will O Lord and not according to mine. also when you say the lords prayer do you not say thy will be done. so yes as long as you are close to Christ and …

No speaking in tongues means that they are given the gift of knowing other languages "tongues" so that when the preached to the whole world they would preach in the language of the natives so that they understood them. of course they would not go to…
-
Yeah you pretty much got the gist of it. and as you said we don't inherit the sin adam committed but the corrupt nature that was put on him by sinning. and by being baptized we are washed of this corrupt nature or "stain" of sin and made worthy to r…

Orthodox11 is correct, the best translation would be mother of God because the word [coptic]Pi;eoremoc[/coptic] means beholder of God which is a title given to many saints including St. Mark the Apostle
-
The intercessions of the Lady of us all St. Mary be with you and him
-
Thats the same problem with entho te tishori for Gad Lewis
-
Yes you are right but i was talking within the Gregorian Calendar,
-
I agree with minagir but i would like to add something, the cross is by far probably the most powerful weapon in our arsenal against the devil. he can't stand its sign and burns when he see's it, so by it we are protected. Second, it is literally th…
-
You are correct it is not right to say that she was just the mother of Christ because Christ himself said I am in the Father and the Father in me, so she is the THEOTOKOS, and even in the tasbeha we say [coptic]`;mau `nUioc :eoc[/coptic] which means…

I agree with safaa i have never heard of the catholics(whether in Egypt or abroad because they still are under the jurisdiction of the pope of rome) change their date for the Feast of the Glorious Resurrection and second, i repeat myself with many o…
