Charity: A gift of grace from God that helps us follow God’s plan for us. The Holy Spirit gives people the grace to run soup kitchens, teach catechism classes, and do other such acts of service. The Holy Spirit helps people to lead music and to read at Mass. The Holy Spirit uses all the good works of people to make the Church healthy and strong and energetic.
Chastity: A moral virtue that helps us manage or control our desires for bodily and spiritual pleasure in the way that God intended. Chastity specifically involves self-mastery of sexual feelings. It is also virtue that helps us choose what is best for others. (2394, 2395)

Agape: Greek for “good will” of “desire for the good of another.” It is often used to describe the highest form of love. It is the love of God for human beings and the love human beings are called to for God and for one another.
