Your point is? Expand The Russian Orthodox Church ( I think the Serbian also ) is considered “ old calendars “ , that’s why they celebrate with 13 days difference … The current calendar that we use is called “ Gregorian calendar “ and the “ old calendar “ is the Julian Calendar . For Greece , the division between Gregorian Calendar and Julian Calendar started in 1924 , then the “ Original Orthodox “ didn’t accept the change because they considered that the Greek Orthodox Church was submitting to the Pope and the Catholic Church and they are currently a really small minority in Greece . I don’t know the reasons why Russian Orthodox Church has kept the Julian calendar and that’s why they celebrate on the 7th January instead of the 25th December .
