You've come to the right place!

Since Easter falls on my birthday this year and since I couldn’t remember whether it ever had before in my lifetime, I became curious and did a search.

It has once (1991, though I don’t remember that) The last time before ’91 was 1929, which was ten years before I was born.

But even more interesting to me was finding this website,

The Date of Easter Sunday from A.D. 326 to 4099.

So if you want to make plans for a big Easter get-together sometime in the next almost three centuries, be sure to consult this calendar to be sure to get the invitations out in a timely manner. :wink:

Some people have too much time on their hands. Why would someone think to figure that out. Although I see it comes from a priest's page and of course, someone else may have it on an internet page somewhere.

I guess that means lent is right around the corner. I'm not ready yet.

If you show up on February 15th you're not going to get any ashes. (Ash Wed. is on the 13th, the 15th is the first Friday of Lent). :)

What's embarrassing, Effie is I wrote that sitting here staring at the February page of a 2013 calendar, reading, thinking and actually saying "the 13th"! :oops: :oops: I think my fingers have started their own revolution! :( []

Hopefully, the fact that my birthday and Easter coincide this year with at least keep me straight on one of the Holy Days!
