Virtue = Strength
QND has partnered with the Virtue = Strength program. Virtue = StrengthTM emphasizes strengthening students’ moral character by intentionally exercising one new virtue each week, reinforcing Catholicism as a way of life. This “virtue training” takes place within our athletic programs by helping our athletes see how they can grow in the weekly virtue on the court, the field, and in their daily lives. It also provides opportunities for team ceremonies, such as the powerful Jersey Ceremony.
Purpose
Falling under the Ministries of Catechesis, Community Life, & Evangelization, Virtue = Strength helps athletes learn the greater purpose of athletics beyond just wins and losses. It allows teaching the “life lessons” that most people acknowledge occur in sports more intentionally.
