An ENDOW Tradition....choosing a virtue.......

ENDOW Study Groups educate and encourage women to live more virtuous lives. At the end of each year, ENDOW sends out a special packet to each Facilitator. This packet contains a “Virtue Card” for each member of the ENDOW Study. We are directed to read the following prayer together:


“Come Holy Spirit, we entrust to you the work of furthering the holiness in the souls of each woman here today. Please guide our hands as we choose the virtue you desire us to work on diligently this coming year. We abandon ourselves to your guidance and welcome the light and assistance you offer to us in this New Year.”


After praying together, each member of the study reaches into the bag and choose a Virtue Card. This year I chose the Virtue “Courage.”


Here is a bit I found in a CNA article on Fortitude (courage)....


“Or: The Determination to Become Happy

In our lives many situations arise in which it becomes difficult to do the right thing, even when we know what it is. There may be all sorts of reasons for why it is disagreeable to act according to what we know is best. In order to stay strong, to do what is good, we need the third cardinal virtue, known alternately as fortitude, courage, or bravery. This is the virtue by which we do the right thing, even in the midst of hardship.

Fortitude helps us to overcome any dangers, obstacles, and fears; it enables a person to withstand whatever difficulties may block him from attaining his true goal.”

Come Holy Spirit!


I pray that all the women of ENDOW receive the virtues God desires to make manifest in them!
