EARTH DAY

  • Mood:

  "The earth will continue to regenerate its life sources only as long as we and all the peoples of the world do our part to conserve its natural resources. It is a responsibility which every human being shares. Through voluntary action, each of us can join in building a productive land in harmony with nature."

President Gerald Ford
Proclaiming March 21st as Earth Day

When is Easter 2008?
From Mary Fairchild,
Your Guide to Christianity.
 
Easter Calendar 2008
 
• February 6 - Ash Wednesday
• March 16 - Palm Sunday
• March 21 - Good Friday
• March 23 - Easter Sunday (Western)
• April 27 - Easter Sunday (Orthodox)
 
In Western Christianity, Easter is always celebrated on the Sunday immediately following the Paschal Full Moon. I had previously, and somewhat erroneously stated, "Easter is always celebrated on the Sunday immediately following the first full moon after the vernal (spring) equinox." This statement was true in 325 AD, when it was established by the Council of Nicea.
 
However, the course of history has modified the meaning of this instruction, and therefore, a clearer, more accurate explanation is necessary today.
 
There are, in fact, as many misunderstanding about the calculation of Easter dates, as there are reasons for confusion about Easter dates. To clear up at least some of the confusion visit:

• Why Do the Dates for Easter Change Every Year?
• Why do Eastern and Western Churches Celebrate Easter on Different Days?

When is Passover in 2008?
 
Passover in 2008 will start on Sunday, the 20th of April and will continue for 7 days until Saturday, the 26th of April.
 
Note that in the Jewish calander, a holiday begins on the sunset of the previous day, so observing Jews will celebrate Passover on the sunset of Saturday, the 19th of April.
