Upcoming Feast Days
November 15: Nativity Fast
Pylypivka, or the Nativity Fast, is a period of spiritual preparation for the Feast of the Nativity of Christ. Starting November 15 (after the Feast of Saint Philip the Apostle) until December 24. During this time, believers abstain from meat and dairy products, pray more, do good deeds, and purify their souls. The purpose of the fast is to focus on spiritual life, give thanks to God, and prepare to welcome the birth of the Savior.
