Aug. 8 marks the feast day of St. Dominic, the 13th-century priest known for founding the Order of Preachers, commonly called the Dominicans, and for spreading devotion to the rosary. Surprisingly, though, the Dominicans don’t usually do much to celebrate the saint’s Aug. 8 feast day. While the August feast “is for us certainly always a feast,” Dominican Father Angelo Giuseppe Urru told EWTN News in 2018, it’s not the primary one. Instead, the order celebrates “more solemnly” May 24, which is the solemnity of the Translation of St. Dominic. “There is also the breviary of St. Dominic, a small breviary,” he said.
