The Apostles’ Fast in 2033
Because it runs from the Monday after All Saints to the eve of Ss Peter and Paul, its length changes every year with Pascha. In 2033 it is 9 days on the New Calendar, and 22 days on the Old.
New Calendar and Old share every date above: Pascha and its cycle are reckoned the same way by nearly all Orthodox. Only the fixed feasts differ, by thirteen days. About Pascha › The feasts and fasts of 2033 ›
