Feast of the Cross - end on the 29th or 30th?

(1/3) > >>

katanikhoros:
Is the Sunday of the 30th going to be Feast of the Cross as well? Or does the Feast end on the 29th?

God Bless

Amoussa01:
"It is important to note that the feast on 17 Thoout is three days long, while the second feast of 10 Paramhotep is celebrated on that day only. Furthermore, if any of these feasts were to come on a Sunday, the readings for the feast are read instead of those assigned for that day, as the Feast of the Cross is treated as one of the major feasts of the Lord."

katanikhoros:
so it's not going to be Feast of the Cross?

Amoussa01:
Dude, read the article.

katanikhoros:
I did, I read it a long time ago, I just need a straight answer. Because the Feast of the Cross comes on a Thursday this year, and thus should end on Saturday, but my Coptic App says that Sunday is also Feast of the Cross, so I'm a little confused. Any clarification of why it says that would be appreciated.
