Why were Jehovah's Witnesses holding a Memorial Service for Jesus on Tuesday, March 26 2013? I was approached by two Jehovah's Witnesses who invited me to a memorial service for Jesus to be held on Tuesday, March 26th. The flier they gave me said that this is the anniversary of Jesus' death. Most Christians view Christ's death as taking place on Good Friday. Why are Jehovah's Witnesses saying it happened on a Tuesday?
Apparently, per Wikipedia, this date corresponds to Nisan 14, converting the date from the Hebrew Calendar to the Gregorian Calendar.  

I don't believe they're saying it happened on a Tuesday.  In 2012, it was a Thursday.
