We can look at example of whole-hearted obedience to God. Here at St. Finbar, we celebrated by having a St. Joseph's Table - which reminds us of the miracle that happened during a famine in Sicily. The people prayed to St. Joseph to intercede for them & their petitions were answered. Parents of several grades provided bread as a symbol of God's goodness.
