This year, we invite you all to participate in the “Pilgrims of Hope Virtue-a-Thon: Growing in Body, Mind, Heart, and Spirit.”
 

This initiative gives students a chance to grow as Pilgrims of Hope. It's both Catholic in spirit, and energizing in practice — a simple, 25-day experience of faith, formation, and fun, where students complete 25 small acts of growth (physical, intellectual, relational, and spiritual) to become young missionary disciples.
 

Students will be invited to:

• Memorize or share 7 Bible verses ("wisdom for the mission")

• Perform 7 acts of kindness ("love for the mission")

• Practice 7 virtues ("spirit for the mission")

• Perform 4 physical challenges ("strength for the mission").

 

As a guide for this Virtue-a-Thon, some of our Calgary Catholic School administrators have teamed up to create resources for students. This booklet consists of one activity per page for 25 days. Please complete each page and as you do so, have your parent or teacher mark it complete on the back of this booklet.
