What: A club for Catholic girls centered on learning and applying the virtues through the lives of the Saints and outreaching the community through service work.
Why: To provide Catholic girls an opportunity to gather and learn about their Catholic heritage, faith and traditions. To give them tools to better ascertain themselves as they develop into Catholic women.
When and Where: The second Wednesday of every month, from 2:15 to 4:00 pm at St. Matthew Catholic School.
The Program:
Each meeting is centered on the teaching of a virtue, to each virtue is associated a flower and a color, think of the colors as threads that are used to make a cloth of virtues.
During the meeting the girls will hear, read, share and learn about our role model -- the Blessed Virgin Mary, our patroness—St. Therese of Lisieux and Conchita (Concepcion Cabrera de Armida) our co-patronesses; saints of the Church, women in religious life, and their own mothers.
The girls will gain a strong self-esteem in being young Catholic girls as well as gain friendships that will support their own beliefs.
