Who said ni-ethnos tero is lost?! It is still the beginning of Vespers praise, followed by the Fourth Hoos, the Saints/Feast Psali and maybe the Days psali, the Day's Theotokia, the Commentary if there is one and finally the Conclusion of the Theoto…
- I would dress appropriate....semi-formal is good since it's only Saturday night.
- You are not really going to be standing in front of the iconostasis directly but i would say the seats for man from the beginning of the church till right before th…
well the only reason that Kiahk is that way is because Christmas as at it's end. The sundays readings are structured i believe in a way that there are 3 major topics, one for every 4 months....day's readings do not follow that because they are purel…

Actually, our church is not part of the Southern Diocese. We had H.G. review it because a number of the people working on the book studied at his seminary in Titusville. We…

Attend, i don't think [it's a bad idea]...take communion and confess and partake of the sacraments....it's not 'wrong' but it's not allowed yet....not before a formal union between the two churches.
And if a couple church is only an hour away, trut…

I don't think you can change a person. Either they naturally become a Christian, like everyone else who is a Christian, or they don't.
I mean, a girl may not…

I wish that New Jersey could've been included in the new diocese. H.G. Anba David has been our father for more than a decade baptizing us, marrying us, burying our…

Arch-Diocese demands an Arch-Bishop. Not a remote control bishopric from Egypt. The dioceses of the church are not a game of Pacman. You cannot be miles away and gui…

Why is New Jersey remaining as an Archdiocese? I don't understand this concept. People have been saying that it is so the Pope can come and go as he pleases…
Those questions are very specific and i don't have an answer for. But some churches will simply be separated from the archdiocese and be their own diocese with anba David the bishop... Not just a general bishop.. A seated bishop. There isn't an issu…

You are never clear in any way. Just too many words with no objective.
