There are two (2) major dates of Christianity:

  1. Easter - the first Sunday after the first full moon after March 21 (resurrection of Jesus Christ); and
  2. Christmas - December 25 (birth of Jesus Christ).

Other important dates surrounding Easter and Christmas are as follows:

  • Lent - 40 days before Easter (self-examination and preparation for Easter)
  • Palm Sunday - Sunday before Easter (Jesus enters Jerusalem)
  • Maundy Thursday - Thursday before Easter (last supper)
  • Good Friday - Friday before Easter (crucifixion of Jesus)
  • Pentecost - 40 days after Easter (coming of the Holy Spirit)
  • Advent - Period marked by the four (4) Sundays before Christmas (preparation for Christmas and the second coming)
