Feast calendar

Feast days and New Moons for 2026–2028, read from the sky the Father set to count them.

A month begins the evening the first thin crescent is seen in the west after sunset; the next day is the New Moon. Abib, the first month, begins with the first crescent after the spring equinox. If a crescent comes before spring, the year waits for the next one, adding a thirteenth month. Every date begins at sunset the evening before.

Confirmed years come from the assembly's sightings. Projected years use the true conjunction and the first evening the crescent can be seen; that rule reproduces every confirmed sighting of 2026. Weather can delay a sighting by a day.

2026 biblical year Confirmed by sighting

Confirmed by assembly elders. The March 19 crescent was seen BEFORE the spring equinox (March 20), so we waited for the April 18 crescent. Abib 1 = April 19.
