St. Joseph's Day (Italy)

St. Joseph is the patron Saint of Bagheria. We celebrate his feast day on 19th March. It is also the "father day" because St.Joseph was father of Jesus. It is a public holiday and all the schools are closed. During the Mess priest blessed bread and everybody brought a little piece of that bread
in their home. In the evening Churchs were illuminated, there was parades in our towns and children flew like Angels.
