About Taksa

Taksa is the Aramaic (Sureth) word for the order of liturgical service.

Taksa is a bilingual reference for the Chaldean Rite — the prayers, masses, sacramental rites, lectionaries, hymns, and chant tones used by the Chaldean Catholic Church and the wider East Syriac tradition. It exists so the diaspora and the curious alike can carry the order of service with them.

What's inside

• Slotha — Prayer: the English Mass, the Chaldean Mass, and the Sunday + Daily Lectionary across ten liturgical seasons.
• Taksa — Liturgy: baptism, engagement, wedding, funeral, lector & subdiaconate ordination, holy orders, and the liturgical calendar.
• Qaleh — Tones: hymns, chants, instrumentals, Ramsha volumes, and the Ramsha martyr hymns, with audio playback.
• Services: Bautha, funeral services, rosary, and the Stations of the Cross in both Arabic and Sureth.
• Alphabet: a reference for the 22 Syriac letters and the Resh d'Qala chant tones tied to each.

History

The original Taksa shipped on the App Store in 2017 as a native iOS app. v2.0 is a rebuilt cross-platform release on React Native — modernized, bilingual with full RTL support, and brought to Android for the first time.
