📌 The Orthodox Calendar 2026 application will keep you updated, through notifications, about all Orthodox Christian holidays with a red cross (major holidays) with details about all the saints on that day. We wanted to make the application as simple and quick to access as possible for a pleasant user experience. For any suggestions or complaints, please contact us by email at biblechants@gmail.com. We read every review and take everyone's opinion into account.

📌 The application also contains prayers that we warmly encourage you to use because many people have stopped praying lately and have forgotten the power of prayer. The only way people can get closer to God is through strong, persistent and authentic prayer; prayer in which God is put first. Here is a list of prayers for all needs:

➢ Prayer at the beginning of work
