Virtues in Practice

Virtues in Practice is a program for children in grades pre-kindergarten through twelve to grow closer to Jesus by imitating His life and virtues. It is set up in such a way that a whole school studies the same virtue each month, to provide a whole-school (and at home, whole-family) focus. The program covers 27 virtues over a three-year cycle, with 81 saints held up as models of the virtues.

and died for our sins and that he will come

to judge the living and the dead.

I believe these and all the truths
