§ 1866 Vices can be classified according to the virtues they oppose, or also be linked to the capital sins which. The capital virtues are called capital from the Latin capitis, head, because every virtue flows from one or more of these capital virtues. While creating this resource we strove to produce something that not only communicated the beauty of virtue, but was beautiful in its own right. Catholic tradition recognizes seven capital virtues: humility, liberality, brotherly love, meekness, chastity, temperance, and diligence. The Virtues for Catholic Youth is a full-color printed book. Each week concludes with a simple but powerful challenge to help youth live out what they have studied. Finally we turn to the Gospel and the greatest model of virtues, Jesus Himself. Next, we turn to the Old Testament and hear about a story of people either succeeding or failing to live out this virtue. We’ve included a custom portrait of the saint along with the biography. The following day of the study unpacks this virtue further by discussing a saint that exemplified it. Next, we explore God’s antidote to this vice: the corresponding virtue. This is accomplished by looking at each virtue in a variety of ways.Įach week begins with a look at a common vice, such as pride, lust, gluttony or envy. Instead of telling about the virtuous life, we strive to help children and their parents experience the virtuous life. It is important to note, however, that The Virtues for Catholic Youth is so much more than an introduction to the virtues. Over the course of 12 weeks, youth will explore Humility, Purity, Mortification, Gratitude, Faith, Generosity, Love, Forgiveness, Hope and Zeal for the Mission. The study will be most effective if each child works through the study, week by week, with a parent. The Virtues for Catholic Youth is a 12 week virtues study, designed to be used by Catholic children in grades 3-8.
