Forgive me, but our Nativity is still December 25th. We just didn’t submit to the papal authority when they changed the world’s calendar in the 1500s.
The Russian Nativity isn’t January 7, it’s still December 25th. We just didn’t submit to some other religion.
Absolutely correct!
O.C. December 25 = Gregorian January 7.
The Orthodox Diaspora has had many difficult consequences.
But we still celebrate Pascha, the “Feast of feasts, Holy Day of holy days, Queen of Sabbaths and supreme” TOGETHER...irrespective of the West!!!
