I should have said direct us, including Schoyen as well :)
-
Dear jydeacon, I guess in relation to my technical problem, I can follow Schoyen's idea (and I guess it will work). You didn't tell us how to install the fonts onto either IE or safari (I use both for XP). If anything different from downloading and …

Dear all, I have visited Remenkimi.com and tried to view the Coptic Bible, but when I clicked on the book of Genesis and the book of Exodus, they came up in English letters, rather than Coptic. Despite having downloaded Coptic fonts before I did wha…

Dear Mina, Thanks for your efforts. God bless you and pray for us a lot
-
Dear Mina, Very nice of you. Thank you very much. God bless you and pray for us a lot
-
Dear jydeacon and all, Yes, all what copticpharaoh said is true. I have a family in Egypt as well, in Cairo, and they told me all of these things. Christians don't kill each other for bread; it is the people in general. Very nice what ilovesaintmark…

Yes AMoussa01; I should have said HCOC rather than HICS. Sorry... God bless you and pray for us a lot
-
Dear all, Although I can't still comment on "Wouniatk" as I haven't heard the HICS version, but I would agree to a good extend with josephgabriel. Probably few things I think should not be taken so strictly, but overall, I like your opinion a lot. J…

Dear all, I am dying to hear that hymn now to share my views with you. I hope that minagir finds a way of sending us the hymn as soon as possible. God bless you all and pray for us a lot
-
Thanks Mina, You are a very kind man really. God bless all your efforts. Pray for us a lot
-
Dear minagir, Are you sure it is not online at all? I would love to listen to it myself (or if you have got a recording why don't you share it with us at least on our e-mails? I am sure you are not someone who likes hogging up hymns to himself, ARE …
-
OK Mina; God be with us all :)
-
Dear gergesezzat, I think minagir is spot on. That is the common mistake and that is how to avoid it. As far as the repeating tune, the tune does repeat itself as AMoussa01 pointed out. Are these satisfying answers for your question, or any other qu…
-
I am waiting minagir, and I hope Wagdi Bishara's hymns are up online soon. God bless you and pray for us a lot
-
Dear gergesezzat, I am not sure if I understand your question now either. Please clarify. God bless you and pray for us a lot
-
Dear ilovesaintmark, and josephgabriel, Very useful link thanks Joseph, and thanks ilovesaintmark for the idea in the first place. Dear zakhary, Yes, why wouldn't they have recorded another one? Or did they, and some sources hogged the tapes up for …
-
Dear gergesezzat, Are you after the hymn "Ekhristos analee-epsis"? You will find it in the section of Ascension hymns, and Pentecost, here under "media". I am sure you know where to look. God bless you and pray for us a lot
-
Dear Zakhary, Thank you very much. That has been helpful, although I would like to have heard the whole of it by a priest and congregation replying in Coptic, but as minagir said that is nearly impossible to find nowadays, isn't it? God bless you al…

Thank you all for your contribution. God bless you all and pray for us
-
So one thing confuses me; week starting Monday after the born blind; should it be in annual rites? Or is that the beginning of the Entry to Jerusalem week? Or do the rites have nothing to do with the beginning and ends of the weeks? I assume they do…
-
Dear ilovesaintmark, You haven't offended me at all, and yes I understood what you said about not associating with you; but I was labelled an extremist even before I noticed your posts (which are constructive and in agreement with mine) on tasbeha.o…
-
Dear jydeacon, It seems I have upset you to the extent of offending you. Well, as I see it (and I may be wrong) generalisation sometimes is part of conveying one's opinions. Exaggeration sometimes serves in that purpose as well, but of course all sh…
-
Dear jydeacon and Coptic Pharaoh, I would like to share an experience with you which I encountered when I was younger. I once taught myself something which is to take a small New Testament Bible with me to the church and follow through the passages …
-
Dear ilovesaintmark, Thank you millions. These are "sort of" the exact words I barked my voice out with a couple of months ago trying to argue with people, and especially this bit about saints icons. Thanks so much again. God bless us all. Pray for …
-
Dear aem351, Just arguing your principle here: I disagree completely with it. The thing is to make the church more attractive and more palatable to young generations some churches in the west went too far with immense consequences of disrespect and …
-
Dear minagir, and jydeacon, Yes it does happen in Egypt. I just left Egypt about four years ago (quite recently as compared to you both), and I saw it in different churches. And yes priests in Egypt are modernised now, and like things which attract …
-
Dear ilovesaintmark, Thank you for backing up my argument about presentations in the church. I am against it in general and not just in the Holy Week (I hope that you don't start disagreeing now :)) I agree too with minagir; it is not a "sad" week, …
-
Dear bentBABAyasooa, I can say that it is a positive factor that your engagement wasn't an arranged one, and that you made al your decisions to start with. I think as you agreed to taking your time, this time round, you will make the right decision …
-
Dear bentBABAYasou', Amazing that all the replies you got so far are from ladies as you are. Let me see if you will benefit from mine though :). First of all; it is very natural for our emotions to fluctuate. Sometimes they are sky high, and sometim…

Dear zakhary, I can't agree more. I love "meghalou" as well; it is so deep and emotion-provoking, but I don't know it by heart. God bless you all and pray for us a lot
