J Thur and Diak--Yeah, I am proud of the guy. He was going to Christendom and then one summer he up and left--next I saw of him was a picture in their newsletter with his habit (vocab?) and full beard. Andrew Chandler was transformed into Novicemonk Sergius.

Dear LatinTrad,

Well, "Chandlers" were candle-makers.

An appropriate surname for a future Eastern Monk wouldn't you say? wink

You think we can baptize rap into some form of New Chant?

Can you imagine the new greeting, "Christ iz in d'hood!"

Cool, dude.

I remember the priest at my old Byzantine Cath parish telling a story of celebrating Pascha in the late 60's and at the end of Matins at the Veneration of the Gospel and the Icon of the Resurrection, he gave the Paschal Greeting to this rather hippyish young man with long hair and beard (could have been a ROCOR monastic wink "Christ is Risen!!!!!" "Right on, Father!!!!"

wink Slang does have good uses in the Church!!!!!!! I like this new rap version of our greetings!!!

LT,

I'm pretty sure novices wear a podriasnik (robe/tunic) and a skoufos (that head thing).

Easterners are free to correct me!

The "Ebonix" version is as follows:

Greeting: Christ up!

Reply: Word up! (Alternatively, "Sho' nuff!")
