May he advocate on our behalf in heaven. RIP His Holiness Pope Shenouda the III Archbishop of the See of Alexandria.

Well around here since we only have one Church, one Alter, and one Abouna we usually do one mass. So that means we split between Arabic, English and Coptic. And because we're so accustomed to this, when we say a phrase or line in Arabic, the English…

St. Mary's, Pittsburgh. We've a nice and smaller Church. Plus we have Abouna Bishoi! :D (Also, Coptic Orthodox.)

His divinity never parted from his humanity.

Yeah if you can definitely go to it. But I think the deadline for registration has passed so you'd have to contact the people conducting it.

If we were all Copts, we would do what Jesus would do. :)

Hello again guys. To Amoussa01: thank you for the links I look forward to checking them out! :) To QT: nah, the hyms are so beautiful and I enjoy singing them. If I only understood and knew how to read the Coptic characters then I think I'd be bett…

[quote author=SuperMAN(BAM) link=topic=6979.msg93425#msg93425 date=1217501004] are you one of the people that did it in convention?! [/quote] Nah, the church that did it was Dayton I'm from Pittsburgh. :P

Definitely my baptized saint, Saint Mina. :) One time I got really scared in the middle of the night and Mary Mina came down and told me that everything was ok. I'll never forget that...

Actually when I moved into a new church I felt the same way. Even when the pope came no one bothered to leave me an e-mail! But I found this one guy who was popular, charming, and very well liked; yet devoted his every time to me and I could definit…

The exact date of the birth of Christ is unknown, try telling that to a person in Eygpt and he will stubbornly refute this fact ;), but it was made by the Roman Empire. They used the holiday of Saturnelia which was a pagan festival to attract more p…

Remember what St. Paul said, sorry I do not have the exact verse, "All things are available to me but not all things are beneficial to me." How would it benefit a child to see a movie which will have a pschological effect on them? Again these things…

[quote author=gregorytheSinner link=topic=5872.msg78859#msg78859 date=1193615000] I kinda agree with Αριψαλιν because no matter how many boycotts there will be a number of people in this world who would die to see that movie in the Old Testament we…

We don't support the Big Bang. Why? Because it brigns up more questions then answers how did this explosion occur, how can all this matter be produced through something the size of a pin, how was matter produced throught this, etc.

I would burn the money, unless you have debts to pay off or something similar. The Church won't accept it. This may have sounded very extreme, but we must remember that money is the root of all evil. Perhaps you should save it. Just put it in a b…

Think of it as a triangle, 3 parts make it up the Son, the Father, and the Holy Spirit and all sides are equal to one another but what is it all a part of? The triangle, 3 aspects 1 triangle. The uniqueness whenever you say Our Father is: In the na…

They get offended if you don't say peace be upon him? American here just say Mohammed I think it only applies for Muslims. Many thing that Muslims do don't apply to 'People of the Book' they realize both Jews and Christians are as deeply religous as…

I remember a priest, or was it a bishop? ???, said that they do that in Holland (Holland does a great job with keep in touch with their youth.) They send verses and stuff via cell phone. I don't know you may want to try that and set it up on your ph…

Third opinion? How about a bishop? :) Salvation can only be through Christ. Although Old Testament prophets died in faith and "became heir of the righteousness which is according to faith", they did not receive salvation until the death of our Lord…

[quote author=gregorytheSinner link=topic=5727.msg76471#msg76471 date=1188954525] The African claim of ancient Egyptians being Actual Africans was denounced in one of Dr. Aziz Sorial's (Coptic Historian) books were he wrote "Original Egyptians are…

Just let bygons be bygons here. We should respect our Christian brothers and their beliefs. After all the Apostolic churches are Catholicism and Orthodoxy. (I am Orthodox.) There are a few differences, although they may be huge we have to learn to t…

Belly dancing actually is wrong IMO. What it is, is bascially a way for people to see inapropriate images and thoughts that bring about lust. Also know this is not a Coptic tradition! It was brought about by Arabs and their culture. Nice wholesom…

It is ok to be sad sometimes, but you should not let it take over your life. As soon as you are sad and angry all the time it soon becomes depression. As it develops it becomes stronger and more dangerous. Conflicting with others is not different. …
