Holy Day Calendar
The feast days of God are a time of happiness, not just because of their meaning for us, but because of the wonderful hope they promise for all mankind. Observing the Holy Days reminds us of God's great love for humanity. Worshiping God in this way is a joy and pleasure. These festivals truly are God's gifts to His people!

In biblical reckoning, days begin in the evening (Genesis:1:5And God called the light Day, and the darkness he called Night. And the evening and the morning were the first day.), when the sun goes down (Joshua:8:29And the king of Ai he hanged on a tree until eventide: and as soon as the sun was down, Joshua commanded that they should take his carcase down from the tree, and cast it at the entering of the gate of the city, and raise thereon a great heap of stones, that remaineth unto this day.; 2 Chronicles:18:34And the battle increased that day: howbeit the king of Israel stayed himself up in his chariot against the Syrians until the even: and about the time of the sun going down he died.; Mark:1:32And at even, when the sun did set, they brought unto him all that were diseased, and them that were possessed with devils.), and are counted "from evening to evening" (Leviticus:23:32It shall be unto you a sabbath of rest, and ye shall afflict your souls: in the ninth day of the month at even, from even unto even, shall ye celebrate your sabbath.). Thus, all God's festivals begin the evening just before the dates listed in this table.
For example, in 2008 Passover is observed Friday evening, April 18, after sundown, and the Feast of Unleavened Bread begins Saturday evening, April 19. The festivals end in the evening on the dates given.
