How to do marriage ceremony based on Chinese tradition?

Posted by admin on March 10th, 2010 and filed under tradition | 1 Comment »

Hi all,
I and my boyfriend are planning on marriage, but we confuse about the tradition. We are both Chinese. Anybody knows about the arrangement, start from proposing, family gathering, until the day of marriage and what should we prepare? we also live at different city. Oh, we are going to have only a simple ceremony. Thanks for the answer.

you mean an "american" wedding influenced by chinese traditions? my cousin did that. he spoke both english and chinese at the wedding, had karaoke, and the bride wore a western style dress. also, the groom proposed with an actual engagement ring. there was lots of chinese food and smoking there.

What Chinese tradition should I talk about for my presentation?

Posted by admin on March 8th, 2010 and filed under tradition | 7 Comments »

I have to make a 3 minutes oral presentation in Chinese class about a Chinese tradition. What should I talk about? I was think about Chinese new year but thought I might not be able to talk about the whole Chinese new year in 3 minutes. Should I talk about the Mid-Autumn festival or another Chinese festival? Let’s hear some suggestions! Thanks!

Why don’t you pick just one part of the Chinese New Year, like giving money to little Children in a red envelope, or eating Dumpling the New Year’s day, etc. There are so many traditions you can cover in 3 minutes, such as the moon cake Chinese eat at the moon festival; sending gift to each other specially during the holidays; respect the elderly, help the younger; Good luck with your presentation.

How did the tradition of Santa Claus start?

Posted by admin on March 2nd, 2010 and filed under tradition | 5 Comments »

I have to do an essay on a strange tradition that I never really thought that was strange; but it is. Please let me know some info or links to information that tell where, when, and why Santa became a popular tradition. Thanksssssssss :]

In 34AD (Or around then, check it out somewhere on google to be sure) A kindly man named St. Nicholas walked past an open window to see a man and his three daughters loudly crying. He over heard them saying they did not have any riches or gold, or anything of worthly value. The father was afraid that his three daughters would never be married since they did not have a penny to their name. (I now weird.) St. Nicholas arrived that first night with a sack of gold for the eldest daughter and dropped it through the window. The father was ever so thankful the next morning. I think he did it on the 6th of December. The next few nights he did the same thing for all of the girls, and on the final night as he dropped the last bag through the man fell to hsi knees and thanked God for St/ Nicholas. I know the story is strange, and I learned it in school when I was 11 so I can’t really remember the facts that well. Try looking on www.google.com.

Why some authors in the Catholic tradition remain unafraid of contact with other religions and world views?

Posted by admin on February 28th, 2010 and filed under tradition | 9 Comments »

Explain why some authors in the Catholic tradition remain unafraid of contact with other religions and world views. Think about basic principles, such as ‘unity’, from Pieper, Dulles, De Lubac, and Newman.

Go, therefore, and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all that I have commanded you. (Matthew 29:19-20)

The mission of the Church is to proclaim and establish the Kingdom of God begun by Jesus Christ among all peoples.

This mission cannot be accomplished by not talking to or being afraid of the people of the world.

It is also a bit hard to not contact the other people of the world when 1 in 6 people in the world are Catholic.

For more information, see the Catechism of the Catholic Church, sections 767-769: http://www.usccb.org/catechism/text/pt1sect2chpt3art9.shtml#767

With love in Christ.

Posted by admin on February 26th, 2010 and filed under tradition | 8 Comments »

Is 1 John 5:1 relevant to the discussion of regeneration and faith? It surely is, even if many in evangelicalism today refuse to go deep enough into the text to discover that fact. A study of 1 John 5:1, 1 John 2:29 and 1 John 4:7, in light of Calvary Chapel’s Brian Brodersen’s comments.
