  1. This. Church holiday calendars literally used to say 25th Dec (7th Jan), this was for ALL days same way they said 14th Jan (1 Jan), and we celebrated "old style New Year" at 14th, not a religious holiday. Now Ukrainian church updated calendars and there's no more two dates I think.

  2. Note that churches that follow old calendar consider it being 25th of December (church calendar), it just corresponds to 7th of January (secular calendar. Specifically in Ukraine our church calendars used to say TWO dates, a regular one and church one, with 14 day difference. So Christmas wasn't on 7th January, it was still 25th December BUT on Julian calendar. Most people get confused with that.
