Did Christmas sneak up on you? Do you wish you had another week or so to get ready and really enjoy the peaceful and relaxed holiday Christmas should be?
Well, have I got good news for you ...
Welcome to Orthodox Christmas -- January 7, 2011
The Orthodox Church is officially the Orthodox Catholic Church. But don't call them Catholic. They have nothing to do with the Pope in Rome. The common name for the church is the Eastern Orthodox Church. There are divisions within that group that mostly reflect the nationality or ethnic group of its members. All together there are are about 300-million Orthodox in the world. They are second only to the Roman Catholic Church. You will find the primary Orthodox Churches in San Francisco listed below.
Orthodox Christmas is based on the Gregorian calendar and it sets the date as January 7th -- and all this is terrific news. Just think:
-- you can take advantage of BOTH the After Christmas Sales and the January Sales
-- most tree lots give away Christmas trees free on Dec 24th late afternoon.
-- you have peace of mind in knowing you're not following the herd
-- all the nonprofits have stopped their constant begging
-- people have calmed-down and returned to a degree of normalcy
