When is the Epiphany in 2021
This holiday is important for all Christians. But the answer to the question of the date of Baptism in 2021 is different for different Christian denominations and churches. For example, the Roman Catholic Church celebrates it on the next Sunday after January 6. This is due to calendar features.
On the same day, the Feast of Epiphany is celebrated by the Armenian Apostolic Church - one of the oldest in the world. There, this celebration is combined with the celebration of the Nativity of Christ, and has a common name – the Epiphany. The same principle is followed in another ancient Eastern church – the Coptic one. In it, however, this double holiday falls on January 7.
In the Russian Orthodox Church, the date of the Epiphany of the Lord is a separate, unchangeable year from year: January 19.
