Who Are We
About
Little Flowers is a Catholic girls’ group that teaches virtues through the lives of the saints, using engaging presentations, crafts and activities.
Each year, the girls work toward earning a “wreath” for their Blessed Mother sashes. This wreath consists of nine flower petals—one for each virtue studied that year. Girls earn their petals by participating in monthly meetings, completing service projects and doing follow-up activities at home.

What Are Virtues
Virtues are good habits that help us to be holy. Some examples are obedience, sincerity, order, patience, flexibility, hospitality and perseverance. The Catechism of the Catholic Church defines virtue as a “habitual and firm disposition to do good.”
St. Therese of Lisieux’s
Little Flowers
Little Flowers isn’t just for young girls—it’s a community for daughters and their mothers (or aunts, grandmothers and mentors) to grow together in faith.
The group is named after Saint Thérèse of Lisieux, a Doctor of the Church who beautifully compared the world to God’s garden, seeing herself as a simple “Little Flower of Jesus” blooming exactly where God planted her.
By following the examples of the saints, the girls put virtues into action, building a strong spiritual foundation to become the women God is calling them to be.

Participation
Little Flowers welcomes all girls in grades K–3 from our parish, school and local community. We meet five times during the school year, typically on Sundays at St. John Nepomucene Parish.
To foster a shared journey of faith, we ask that a mother (or a beloved aunt, grandmother or mentor) attend each meeting with her daughter. Our girls truly thrive when their role models are right there beside them.
