Virtue of the Month The virtue we will be working on for the month of November is Humility. Humility is knowing the truth about yourself. The humble person acknowledges that your talents are gifts because they come from God and should be used for His glory. Humility helps us to rejoice in one another’s achievements, because we know every person’s talents are a gift from God.
