Mission Statement

GIOVANNI PAOLO PANINI

We acknowledge that the Word of God is completely sufficient for all spiritual training (2 Timothy 3:16). We also acknowledge that academics apart from spiritual training is a modern endeavor and not reflective of the Biblical mandate to train up a child in the way he should go (Prov 22:6). We believe that children are born persons, and should be put in the way of all things true, noble, right, pure, lovely, and admirable (Phil 4:8). This includes all things spiritual and all things academic. Virtus Tutorials’ chief aim is to provide a framework of Christian education so that our students will be thoroughly equipped as servants of God for every good work (2 Tim 3:17).

The Latin word Virtus connotes strength, honor, and valor…virtues which make a “good man.” In our program “virtues” are those qualities which honor Christ and grow Christian character.

“Finally, brothers and sisters, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable—if anything is excellent or praiseworthy—think about such things.”

Philippians 4:8
