Just a question guys, i know that the Feast of Cana of Galilee takes place on the 13th of Toba in the Coptic calender. Does Jonah's fast take place the day after immediately (i.e. monday, tuesday, wednesday, thursday [feast]) or on a set coptic day?

thank you

joe

    i dont think so. im not entirely sure though the thing is that it has to be 2 weeks before lent and lent has to be 55 days before the lunar equniox i think so jonahs is based on lent not the feast correct me if im wrong
