“IMIENINY” (NAME DAYS) FOR THE COMING WEEK. Help to maintain a longstanding Polish Catholic tradition by acknowledging relatives, friends, and colleagues who are celebrating their “name day,” corresponding with the feast day of a saint of the same name.  Where there is more than one saint of the same name who has been assigned a day, your “name day” is the one closest to your birthday. It is customary in the Polish tradition to acknowledge the name day of a relative or friend:
August 1: Konrad, Piotr
August 2: Karina, Maria, Stefan
August 3: Augusta, Lidia
August 4: Dominik, Maria
August 5: Emil, Maria, Stanisława
August 6: Jakub, Sława, Stefan
August 7: Anna, Dobiemir, Donata, Dorota
