Catholic Culture's suggestions for marking this feast:

1. You must have a table that is simply overflowing with good Italian food on this day!

2. Check out this wonderful site that explains the St. Joseph Altar more in detail, includes recipes, history, and allows virtual offerings.

3. Pray this prayer and litany in honor of St. Joseph with your family rosary tonight.

Here is a link to several meditations on St. Joseph — choose the one that is perfect for you and your family!

4. Here are some ideas for teaching children about St. Joseph.

5. Young girls ought to pray to St. Joseph for their future spouse. I would add engaged couples should pray for each other and young men should pray for purity in their thoughts and in their regard for women.
