The virtue we practiced this past week focused on MEEKNESS.

Meekness is serenity of spirit while focusing on the needs of others.

LOOKS LIKE:   

*Remaining calm and counting to ten when you are upset.

*Asking the Holy Spirit to help you see things differently.

*Taking a break when you are upset.

 *Waiting without complaining.

SOUNDS LIKE:  

*One, two, three...

*Come Holy Spirit, and show me what I should do.

*I will listen while you are talking.

*Give me a minute please.

*Silence
