This week we are talking about humility. The two marks of humility are honesty and thankfulness. To understand humility better, let's look at the saints celebrating feast days this week.
+ Monday: On the feast day of Pope Saint Pius X, let's hear the story of Little Nellie of Holy God, the little girl that convinced him to lower the age of First Holy Communion.
+ Tuesday: Mary is the perfect example of humility, so let's her from her on the feast of the Queenship of Mary.
+ Wednesday: St. Rose of Lima knew that all she was came from God and was set aside for Jesus Christ.
+ Thursday: It's the feast of St. Nathaniel and Apostle. Let's remember that no matter who we are, Christ sees us too!
+ Friday: We round out the week with Saint Louis King of France, a man who was king, but still bowed to Jesus Christ, the King of the Universe.
If you are in the Clubhouse, we hope to see you at our Virtues Study on Thursday afternoon!

0:07.4 | Catholic Sprouts, |
0:10.0 | the daily podcast for Catholic kids that strives to plant seeds of faith. |
0:31.5 | Hey there, sprouts. Today is Monday, August 24th, 2020. Today is also the feast day of Pope St. Pius the 10th. Now, we're going to talk more about him today, but before we get there, please join me in praying the prayer |
0:39.2 | to St. Michael, the Archangel. In the name of the Father and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit, |
0:46.8 | amen. St. Michael, the Archangel, defend us in battle, be our protection against the wickedness |
0:54.0 | and sneers of the devil. May God |
0:57.0 | rebuke him, we humbly pray, and do thou, O prince of the heavenly host, by the power of God, |
1:04.7 | thrust into hell, Satan, and all the evil spirits who prowl about the world seeking the ruin of souls. Amen. |
1:15.2 | So like I said, today is the feast day of Pope Pius the 10th. Now, we are going to use him |
1:22.0 | and all of the other incredible saints celebrating feast days this week to understand humility. Now humility is the |
1:32.0 | virtue that we are going to be discussing this month inside the clubhouse. Each month we have a |
1:39.8 | virtue study, one call for girls, one call for boys, both talking about humility. But what is humility? |
1:50.4 | Well, humility is the virtue that we all need to cultivate before we can grow in any other |

2:13.1 | humble means that we're, we kind of think we're not very good or we, or maybe we are really good at math, but we pretend like we're not. |
2:22.0 | That's not what humble is at all. |
2:24.3 | Being humble means that we are honest and particularly we are honest when we think about ourselves in relationship with God. |
2:31.0 | So, for example, we would never think that we blessed ourselves with all the things that we |
2:37.2 | have, all of our talents and gifts. A humble person is aware that they have these talents and gifts, |
2:44.0 | but those gifts come from God. That there is a God, but it's not me. Also, a humble person is always thankful, because they |
