Virtues in Practice

Virtues in Practice is a program for children in grades pre-kindergarten through eight to grow closer to Jesus by imitating His life and virtues.

It is set up in such a way that we all study the same virtue each month, to provide a whole-family focus. The program covers 27 virtues over a three-year cycle, with 81 saints held up as models of the virtues.
