4 Eclipses Not to Miss 2026–2029
Some eclipses, like this month’s partial solar eclipse, can be very elusive. We’ve compiled a list of upcoming eclipses you can get to in real life.
Millions of Orthodox Christians commemorate Good Friday, also known as “Great Friday” to remember the events leading up to Jesus' crucifixion. The Orthodox Easter dates usually differ from the dates used by western churches because most Orthodox churches retained some version of the Julian calendar, which is older than the Gregorian calendar, commonly used today.
Is Orthodox Good Friday a Public Holiday?
Orthodox Good Friday is an optional holiday. Employment and holiday laws in Montenegro allow employees to choose a limited number of holidays from a list of optional holidays. Some employees may choose to take the day off on this day, however, most offices and businesses remain open.
The crucifixion and death of Jesus Christ is remembered on Good Friday.
