Thanks for the replies. The kind of calendar I am looking for is pretty thorough though. Basically I'm looking for something like this (http://holytrinityorthodox.com/calendar/index.htm) but in a printed version and from a True Orthodox synod. Is there any such calendar?

Troparion of St. Philaret of New York
Let us the faithful now come together to praise our father, protector and teacher the pillar of the Orthodox faith and firm defender of piety even the wondrous hierarch Philaret and let us glorify our Saviour Who has granted us his incorrupt relics as a manifest sign of his sanctity.

This is a sample of the printed wall calendar by HOMB (HOCNA): http://www.homb.org/calendar-and-daily- ... lendar.php This calendar does have the readings for all Sundays on the back pages, and there is included a daily scripture reading booklet that is free with the purchase of a calendar. There is also a desk calendar, which the booklet is not included. http://www.homb.org/publications/docs/p ... atalog.pdf

A double-take? How so?

I have a Serbian Orthodox Calendar (Old Calendar but in communion with the MP).
In that calendar, the feast day of St. Nicholas is listed as December 19 inside the box for December 19.
The Feast of the Nativity of Christ is listed in January inside the box for January 7.

However, in the GOC/HOTCA calendar which you linked above, the feast day of St. Nicholas is listed as December 6/19, inside the box for Dec. 6, which falls on a Monday. The Feast of the Nativity of Christ is listed as December 15/7 (inside the box for Dec. 25, which falls on Saturday). In the NC, Christmas falls on December 25, a Sunday.

So, according to the GOC calendar, we are still in the month of November as today is November 29. This is the reason for my double take..

Lord Jesus Christ, have mercy on me a sinner.

Ah I see what you mean. Yes it is a little confusing, but we can blame Pope Gregory for that. ;)

And my poor mom. She always thinks that there is a two weeks difference in our calendars, so she continues to think that Pascha is two weeks AFTER Western Easter.

Would that it be so simple. :lol:

Do you remember the snoopy cartoon (I think it was snoopy) which depicted a scene offering a beautiful bouquet of Valentine's Day flowers two weeks late and responding,"I missed Valentine's Day, so I thought I would bring these flowers for Orthodox's Valentine's Day."

Lord Jesus Christ, have mercy on me a sinner.

Well I was able to find a liturgical calendar that is produced by St. John of Kronstadt Press, which is under Met. Agafangel of Odessa of ROCOR, in the link below:
