edited March 2007 in Youth Corner
Hey guys, im not sure if you all know, but there used to be a tasbeha deacons group where all the deacons from teh area (north east) would make an effort to meet at a certain church once a month for one big tasbeha.  however, it kinda died out, so i was wondering if anyone was up for setting something else up like that.  So post your comments,ideas, suggestions, etc ;D

    great idea. get back up. the truth is i wouldn't come becuase i like to pray in my church on weekends (which is St. Mark's JC), but it would be great to support somthing good. i thought that yahoo group was lead by David Bebawy who invited many people from Rutgers and NJIT.

    ya well i thought it was a great idea, even though i never really got the chance to go to any except the one when we had anba david during kiahk, and it was held at our church that month.  But washington? thats kinda far, atleast for me, but the issue now isnt the different locations to hold them at, but how this is going to be set up.  so pray that we can set this up speadily and easily, and pray for me as well.

    hey sorry that i havent replied in a while i didnt notice that anyone replied to what i said. ok so i was thinking call up the makar and talk to anba david about it and if he approves ask him to fax a flier and mail them and stuff to all the churches in our diocese and then as it gets more popular word will spread and we should have a huge turn out what do you think?
  • copt4evacopt4eva

    ya habibi this is already done, the priest and the deacons all know about but they choose not to follow.
    the english responses of St. Basil liturgy were recorded by some deacons from the NA diocese.
    this was approved through HG David by HH about 2 yrs ago. HH said follow it, and that included everyone in the US, even thoo the southern diocese have their own way.
    now the only church that use that is my church, St. Mark's Jersey City, NJ. i also heared that St. Phelopatir Markoreios belvel and St. George broklyn are starting to use it.

    well it was on eccyc.com for a while but i don't know where the response now.
    for tasbeha there is 2 main translations going around. the translation of St. Anotny monestary adn the one from the queens church. my church uses the queens book since it's an official book.
    but in eccyc, they use st.Antony one
