Plan Sunday services, shifts and rest days
Sunday schedules include church services, weekend markets, rest-day shifts and family routines. Knowing whether a month has four or five Sundays helps you plan rosters, volunteer rotations and rest-day pay before the month starts.
Every calendar Sunday in the range is counted. Use the Matching dates list to assign people to each date.
Count Sundays between two dates
- Choose This month or This year for a full period, or enter a Start date and End date for a term, contract or project.
- Keep both dates included if a session could happen on either boundary. Open Advanced: date boundaries to leave a boundary out.
- Read the total and the First and Last dates, then open Matching dates to check every Sunday in the range.
Results update as you edit. If your week starts on Sunday, the first date of the month is often a Sunday, so check the start boundary.
Example: five Sundays in November 2026
November 1, 2026 is a Sunday, so November 2026 has five Sundays: November 1, 8, 15, 22 and 29. December 2026 has four: December 6, 13, 20 and 27.
November 2026: 1, 8, 15, 22, 29 = 5
December 2026: 6, 13, 20, 27 = 4
November–December total = 9
A volunteer rota that assumes four Sundays a month would leave November 29 unassigned.
Why 2028 has 53 Sundays
2028 is a leap year that starts on a Saturday. Its two extra days after 52 full weeks are a Saturday and a Sunday, so 2028 has 53 Saturdays and 53 Sundays. 2026 and 2027 each have 52 Sundays.
