The Different Feasts of St. Philomena:
January 10th: Birthday of Saint Philomena
Sunday after January 10th: Patronage day of Saint Philomena
May 25th: Celebration of the finding of the Holy Body of Saint Philomena
August 10th: Celebration of the Translation of the Holy Body and the Martyrdom of Saint Philomena
August 11th: Liturgical Feast in honor of Saint Philomena
August 13th: Celebration of the name of Saint Philomena;
Second Sunday of August: Solemn festivities in honor of Saint Philomena
(St. Philomena’s Feast day was originally August 10, which also happened to be St. Lawrence’s Feast, so out of respect for him, the Church moved the day forward by one.)
Formally those who honor the Saint on the Second Sunday of August could receive a Plenary Indulgence, if they confess their sins, receive Holy Communion, say prayers for the intentions of the Holy Father [The minimum of which are one Our Father, one Hail Mary and one Glory Be]
