THIS JUST IN: The Apostles’ Fast June 19, 2006

Just in case you missed it, most Orthodox are in a seasonal fast in honour of the Holy Apostles. Those on the so-called New Calendar will celebrate the Feast of Saints Peter & Paul (thus, end the fast) on June 29th. Those on the so-called Old Calendar will fast for 13 days more, till July 12th.
