Armenian Church Calendar

The Armenian Church Calendar is a liturgical timetable used by the Armenian Apostolic Church to organize religious events, feasts, and saints’ days throughout the year. It incorporates both fixed dates, such as Christmas on January 6, and movable feasts, like Easter, which vary annually based on lunar calculations. The calendar also follows the ancient Armenian ecclesiastical tradition, including special periods like Lent and Holy Week. It serves to guide worship, fasting, and celebrations, ensuring that the faithful observe their religious practices in harmony with the church’s liturgical rhythm.
