Francis was known as “the gentle bishop,” which is why the pope sent him to Geneva where there were many disputes between Catholics and Protestants. The pope needed someone who could bring some balance and peace to the situation. Francis, however, wasn’t always so gentle.

As a young man he worked hard to master his temper and moderate his desires. This internal struggle opened him up to allow God’s grace to work through him. Many people came to him because of his wise advice. His spiritual writings continue to guide Christians in the ways of holiness.

Moderation is attention to balance in one's life. We can cultivate moderation by resisting the desire to play during work time in class or at home, by saying “no thank you, I have had enough,” and by limiting how much food you eat and how much time spend on the computer. by @jp2schools

Therese was a young French girl who entered a Carmelite convent when she was fifteen years old. She practiced the virtue of meekness by loving all the other nuns, even those who caused her annoyance. She strove to show her love not by great or heroic things but by little actions for God and her sisters. Her sisters in religion, upon her death, hardly knew of her spiritual greatness.

Today St. Therese is a co-patroness of the missions and a Doctor of the Church. Her autobiography and other writings have brought many to a deeper walk with God.

Meekness is serenity of spirit while focusing on the needs of others. We can cultivate meekness by walking away when we are angry instead of fighting, by remaining calm, by allowing others to go first, and by waiting without expecting people to notice our patience. by @jp2schools

“To go on pilgrimage really means to step out of ourselves in order to encounter God where He has revealed Himself.” Pope Emeritus Benedict XVI

Today our 8th graders journeyed together on foot to encounter God in new ways and to pray for special intentions.

Even as a child Gemma would say, “Gemma can do nothing, but Gemma and Jesus can do all things.” Throughout her life she retained this simplicity. Jesus granted her many visions of Him, but she never thought she was special.�Gemma suffered a great deal, and she offered it all for the salvation of souls. After her mother and father died, she spent most of her time taking care of her younger siblings. by @jp2schools
