No. The closest Orthodox holidays are:

20.04 - Velikij Chetverg
21.04 - Strastnaya Pyatnitsa
23.04 - Paskha
24.04 - Paskhalnyj ponedelnik
01.06 - Prazdnik Vosnesenya
11.06 - Troitsyn den
18.06 - Troitsa
22.06 - Prazdnik tela Christova
29.06 - Den Sv. Petra i Pavla

These dates are valid for the year 2000, they may shift in the next
year (some of them are related to the day of the week).

But anyway there are no great Orthodox holidays in May. Maybe you have
muddled May and April?

Cordially,
