Ordinary Time is full of many feast days dedicated to a number of holy saints. Their lives are honored and celebrated by the Church in hopes that we too will one day be included in the heavenly banquet.
Here is a prayer from The Catholic prayer book and manual of meditation that asks God for the grace to imitate the examples of the saints we celebrate at Mass.

we may also imitate their actions,
through our Lord Jesus Christ.
