Orthodox holidays. Autumn

A hot summer has passed...

Autumn is coming, the time of harvesting. Autumn in the Russian people is also called "golden." Why so? Yes, at this time of year, the leaves on the trees from green become golden yellow. But besides, such a name is assigned to this time of year because it is then that the results of the collection of the crop given from the Lord are summed up. And after the Orthodox people and the Land-northwest await a well-deserved rest.

In former times, it was in this fertile time that the Russian people celebrated the New Year. It was the Autumn sometimes in ancient Israel by our Savior Jesus Christ began his preaching about the new life and the eternal kingdom of the Lord. Let us see what other holidays the church and the Orthodox people celebrate in the fall.
