Also I believe the Syriac Orthodox in Jerusalem still use the Julian Calendar.
Armenian Orthodox still use the Julian Calendar too. They celebrate Christmas on January 19.

Indeed, and I love that. At one time, that was the date used by the other churches, but today only the Armenians still celebrate Christmas and Theophany on the Julian Calendar.
