October | Formation Lesson with Laura Hunter – "Planting Seeds in our Family Garden"

In October, our theme is planting the seeds of values and virtues deep in your family soil. This month, we will follow Dr. Russell Hall’s terminology and use the word “values” for the character traits we want in our lives. Values are traits you strongly believe are good and right. But that doesn’t necessarily mean that you or your child always act on those beliefs. When a value becomes an internal desire and also an external behavior, it moves from a value to a virtue that you exhibit. We want our children to choose values freely and also choose to live a virtuous life.
