Prudence - Sam and Teal'c would both qualify for this one. Mitchell definitely would not. Vala and Daniel aren't exactly prudent either.
Wisdom - Again, Sam or Teal'c. Early seasons Daniel would have been a possibility, but unless he qualifies by virtue of the Ascended knowledge stored up in the back corners of his brain, current seasons Daniel is not.
Charity - I think we can safely rule Vala out. Early seasons Daniel would have been more or less a shoe-in for this one, but now I think it'd have to be Sam, maybe Teal'c.
Kindness - Sam.
Faith - This is a toughie. I think that Sam has a lot of faith in her friends and the people she works with, so she would get my vote. Mitchell seems to have limitless faith in the ability of the designation SG-1 to shield them from the consequences of his recklessness, so maybe this one could be his.
Sam is the only one I could see coming anywhere close to covering all five, but I think we can all agree that we are unlikely to see this. I can't see any of these virtues that I would apply to Vala or, with the possible exception of Faith, to Mitchell. Daniel as he is now also doesn't strike me as possessing an abundance of any of these virtues, so having each member of the team cover one virtue doesn't seem believable.

Faith thats Teal'c. The entire ep of Avatar was that teal'c had faith that they could not beat the goa'uld unless they all worked together. And thus he has faith that the goa'uld can be defeated if they all work together. I think teal'c more then anyone else has faith in his team and has great trust that they will never betray him and will always be their for him.
His team being O'Neill, Carter and Daniel. I not sure why one would have faith in Mitchell, although I am sure he WANTS to do the right thing I dont think you can have faith in him making the right decision at the right time. And of course anyone that has faith in Vala is just niave. Her complete and utter transfromation smacks of an act. As many of said before shes a "survivor" and at the moment it is in her interest to act all innocent. She is over playing the hand with the 6 year old act though. IMHO.
