Orthodox: Good Friday is the first Friday after the start of passover

Protestant/Roman Catholic: Easter is the first Sunday after the first full moon after the first day of spring.

In a nutshell.

Sometimes Easter/Pascha is the same East/West.

I am Protestant, and my wife is Orthodox Christian.

Protestant/Roman Catholic: Easter is the first Sunday after the first full moon after the first day of spring vernal equinox. Not quibbling, just more accurate.
