18 July: Ss Dubogan/Dubh, Failbe Mac Cruaich Dibich, Enair/Januarius, Fintan a priest, Míanach son of Failbe, & Cellach. St Míanach might be of race of Conall Gulban; so related to St Columba/Colmcille. 🎨'St Columba Bidding Farewell to The White Horse' by John Duncan (1925)
O santo que escolleu foi San Colmcille, antigo patrón da Irlanda e personaxe de fondo significado na tradición relixiosa e cultural da illa, que aínda no pasado 2021 festexou os 1500 anos do seu nacemento.

Two 17th century visual reworkings of St. Colmcille or Columba of Iona whose feast it is #otd on 9 June, d. 597. Both turn him into a #Benedictine. (JMcC/BM)
Born in Gartan, Donegal, Colmcille was accused of stealing, inciting a battle and taming a monster. If he was still around, he’d certainly have been reported for throwing parties during Covid. Today, June 9th, marks his 1500th birthday. https://t.co/4kDnQQe01O
Happy Feast of St. Colmcille!
And thank you Derry for him, for John Hume, Seamus Heaney @LisaMMcGee and the Undertones @MickeyUndertone
