Is this for Thanksgiving? When I was little, (I don't remember if this was from choir, church camp, or from a CD I listened to) there was: Give thanks with a grateful heart Give thanks to the Holy One Give thanks because He has given Jesus Christ,…

Lord have mercy. Stay strong! You're family has my prayers. :)

HGBY isn't contradicting himself. He's saying we shouldn't have an "alternative" (for the sake of being an alternative) in church by creating fake feasts to distract the kids from Halloween. Attending Vespers, glorifying saints, and acting in play…

Priesthood is a calling, monasticism is both. When I went to monastery last year, I also became really attached and asked the monks to ordain me on the spot. They told me to finish school first. I'm a girl, BTW. I don't think there's anything w…

To the OP, Halloween stuff aside, there's nothing wrong with observing All Saints' Day at all. You say. :-X

I don't take calling the Almight God a "jerk" lightly. People can insult me all they want, but not my God. God helps. Prayers work. [quote author=christ_rose link=topic=12523.msg146973#msg146973 date=1320259617] To TITL calm down. your point…

This thread has a few suggestions for things you can play: http://tasbeha.org/content/community/index.php/topic,9976.0.html As for the sources and background, your guys are Remnkemi, Ophadece, Tasgeel..etc Good luck!

:-X I won't say anything.

Nice.

Jimmy, Have you read this by HGBY: I do not believe it is in Christian fellowship to celebrate Halloween. I do NOT encourage our children to dress in costumes. Costumes on this night are symbolic of celebrating Halloween. The same holds true for th…

And why is Fr. Mark more credible than Bishop Youssef? ::)

[quote author=Crazy4Christ1 link=topic=12523.msg146943#msg146943 date=1320240093] then when it is test time you end up getting 100%, you dont acknowledge your friend as him helping you, you acknowledge him as a jerk for just sitting there and doing …

Crazy4Myself1, Don't worry about praying for a place in Heaven. You can get there yourself. Don't worry about praying for any virtues. You can teach yourself. Don't worry about praying for any struggles or weaknesses. You can overcome them yourse…

I don't mind that. What I do mind is name calling, face spitting, and Glory stealing from our Lord. Just because you cannot physically see His help, doesn't mean He sits in the corner waiting for you to be successful on your own. We cannot do any…

Are you calling God a "jerk"? Crazy4Myself1, you have serious issues. I advise you to speak with your FOC instead of posting nonsense. If don't believe in God's power, then feel free to convert to Islam. They'll be happy to use you.

God does help. "Ask and it will be given to you". Prayers are real. They work. God doesn't do the work for us; He is a Fair God. If someone did their part, He will, out of His Mercy and Love, bless the rest. God was with Joseph, and Joseph was …

When a person is sick, they take medicine. Don't ever deprive yourself from communion, unless you're told to. As for speaking with Abouna, ask God to give you courage, and He will.

[quote author=irishpilgrim link=topic=12429.msg146927#msg146927 date=1320198231] Remnkemi and TITL, and have apparently been misplaced in the Coptic Church for 15+ years. [/quote] That doesn't sound "happy" to me..
-
Irishpilrim, I'm sorry, but I can't tell if you're agreeing with me and Remnkemi or disagreeing. The way you worded some things, it sounds like you're maybe possibly sorta upset. But that's just a hunch.

Last time I visited Egypt, my cousins took me to the monastery to get a cross tattoo... but I'm afraid of needles, so I made sure it didn't happen ;)
-
I haven't done my homework and researched it well enough to know what the church fathers say about this. I guess you can ask Remnkemi... he's more educated than I am. ;)
-
In my opinion, this is a misconception. I wrote about this in the date of Christmas thread a few months back. Christmas was dated in December because it is 9 months after the Annunciation. The Annunciation, according to popular belief in late antiqu…

Thoxsasi, I think the church should teach was it right, and leave everyone to do as they wish. But I don't agree with having an alternative (all saint's day) for the Satanic feast. We've been the same for over 2000 years; I personally don't think…

ILSM knows. .....everything ;)

Yes.

Remnkemi, I asked a Bishop just for you ;) "Peace and grace, The number 9 is significant in that it reminds of the hours our Lord Jesus Christ spent to pay our debts and thus grant us salvation. This is the way of the cross starting from 9:00 …

I want to apologize again for giving a nickname to a priest. I honestly didn't know his name was "Abraham", I thought it was "Abraheem", but I've only heard people calling him "Abe". Thanks for pointing it out, ILSM.

Sorry :(

But Abouna Abe hasn't been a priest for 5 years...
