I was told that there is a video where a monk is playing the naqous and another
the cymbals, and another the triangle.
Does anyone know if what I am saying makes sense?

just learn that this is the original rite...not much people follow it. but many just have the cross and the bishara. i am saying this to not cause problems between you and older deacons.

If certain deacons remain persistent in not changing to "A-Isos" what is one to do?
[/quote]
pray for them. :)
Al-naqous=al-naous does mean cymbals. we now call it "daff." many old deacons (age-wise) would still call a daff a nakous. arba' alnakous just means= verses of cymbals.

Why? Isn't fasting a joyful thing according to the church?

to symbolise the church is joyful entering …
I support what JY said. to add, the deacon also hold the cross during any of the procession. the "bishara", the gospel as we say in english is put aside mainly for the litany of the Gospel only. but what is done now is that you let little deacons do…

There are no Vespers on Lent weekdays (Monday to Friday, inclusive) because their Mass is done later in the day. In some churches it ends at 3pm. This makes sense, since pe…
It is NOT Vespers. it is, as it says in the readings file, "The Evening Prayer" = "salat al-masa-a"
It is part of the sunday readings rather than monday. there still NO VESPERS for weekdays. therefore the rite is weekend. if you also look at the rea…
