Meta-x holidays

[Where Meta is usually the Alt key]

gives April 11th as Good Friday.

M-x calendar gives access to a  goodly selection of calendars - Islamic, 
Persian, Chinese and the three versions of the Mayan calendar - info
emacs for further and better particulars of these as well as the Julian 
and Gregorian calendars.

HTH,
