Lenten Virtues | Print |
The Virtues of the Week

These virtues correspond to each Sunday’s Gospel reading. We will be distributing Practice Cards as a reminder each Sunday. Further reading on each and others is offered in the booklet “Called to be Holy” by Gwen Costello distributed by the parish at the beginning of Lent.

February 21st
           Fortitude

           Start this week by making small decisions that require you to be strong
           and do the right thing.

February 28th
           Listening
           Spend some time this week quietly re-reading the Gospel and then just being quiet with it.
           How is it calling you to transform your life?

           Patience
           This week be patient in the small ways that you might pave the way for patience
           in greater things.

           Unconditional Forgiveness
           Make an effort this week to forgive with no conditions.

           Make the commitment to come and worship with your community on Holy Thursday,
           Good Friday & Holy Saturday, and then enter into the joy of Easter morning.
