Rise Up Virtues Devotional for Kids

Rise Up: Shining with Virtue Devotional for Kids is a beautiful and remarkable collection on the Catholic faith for today’s children. From the makers at Blessed Is She, this compilation of over a dozen writers offers, an in-depth, age-appropriate view of virtues, steeped in Catholic tradition, suitable for children ages 8-12.

In over 250 pages, each chapter addresses on one of fifteen virtues, all inspired by Saint Thomas Aquinas’ writings on virtues in his influential work, Summa Theologiae.

Written in a seven-day format, the chapter opens with a reflection on a Scripture passage that captures that virtue. For the next five days there are daily spirited reflections, with Scripture or a Saint quote, brief enough to memorize. The week is wrapped up with a thought-provoking and encouraging conclusion and prayer.

The fifteen virtues found in the devotional are:

• faith written by Gina Fensterer
• hope written by Dr. Samantha Aguinaldo-Wetterholm
• charity by Blessed is She’s founder, Jenna Guizar
• prudence by Abbey Davis Dupuy
• justice by Mary Catherine Craige
• gratitude by Anna Coyne
• generosity by Joan Geiger
• obedience by Bobbi Rol
• fortitude by Jacqui Skemp
• perseverance by Blythe Fike
• patience/mercy by Megan Hjelmstad
• temperance by Sister Maria Kim Bui
• humility by Olivia Spears
• studiousness by Rose Coleman
• honesty by Dr. MaryRuth Hackett.

Give this gift to the children you love to help them learn Scripture and the wisdom of the Saints and grow in virtue.
