Children need heroes, but not the kind that have superpowers. Children need adults in their lives who live their vocation… adults on the path to sainthood… adults who exhibit heroic virtue! Living a life of heroic virtue does not entail being perfect, but rather striving to live a life of virtue despite sinful tendencies and temptations. Children imitate adults who live lives of heroic virtue, not because they never fail, but because, through the grace of God, they don’t stay down when they fall. Practicing heroic virtue in our families, does more than form “good kids” or create harmonious households. Practicing heroic virtue in our families lead our children to their true vocation.
The Diocese of Grand Island’s Heroic Virtue Family Retreat is a three-day hands-on retreat full of fun family activities, opportunities to share the Sacraments, and support from clergy, religious, and laity designed to equip parents and energize children on their path to sainthood.
The retreat will be held at The Crossing Retreat Center in Lexington, Nebraska.
