Christ the Savior Orthodox Cathedral Father Joseph Lucas, Ph. D. The early Christian Church did not establish the observance of Christmas based on any pagan feast. Rather, they counted nine months forward from the (much older) feast of Annunciation on March 25, which marked the conception of Jesus in the womb of the Virgin Mary. The connection of Christmas to the Annunciation, although often lost on modern Christians, is something rather profound.
