Saint of the Day calendar

Saints of July

In MySavior’s Saint of the Day calendar, each of the 31 days of July has its own saint or feast: 29 saints, 1 Blessed and 1 feast or commemoration. Each row links to the English Wikipedia article behind that day’s biography in the app.

July includes Saint Benedict of Nursia (July 11), a patron saint of Europe; Saint Mary Magdalene (July 22); the apostle Saint James the Great (July 25); Saints Joachim and Anne (July 26), by tradition the parents of Mary; and Saint Ignatius of Loyola (July 31), who founded the Jesuits.

Notes on July

Names are shown exactly as the app shows them. The day-to-saint matching loosely follows the General Roman Calendar of the Catholic Church, with some United States dates, so a saint may fall on another day in your local calendar. How the days are chosen.

MySavior’s Saint of the Day widget shows the entry for today’s date from this list: small on the Home Screen, or rectangular and inline on the Lock Screen. It changes at midnight, and a tap opens the saint’s biography in the app, whose Saints of the Day library also lists every month with today marked.
