Totus
Tuus 2007
What is Totus Tuus?
Totus Tuus is a Catholic youth
program dedicated to sharing the Gospel and promoting the Catholic faith
through catechesis, evangelization, Christian witness, and Eucharistic
worship. The goal of Totus Tuus is to help young people grow in the
understanding of, and strengthen their faith in, Jesus Christ. It is only
by establishing a real and personal relationship with Him that we can be
led to the love of the Father in the Spirit and so be made sharers in the
life of the Holy Trinity. "I am the way, the truth and the life. No
one can come to the Father except through me," (John 4:16). Totus
Tuus strives to bring forth a balance between the knowledge of the meaning
of the Sacraments and Sacramental Practices, thus bringing our faith
alive.
Totus Tuus seeks to foster openness to vocations in the young people we
serve as well as among the teachers. This is accomplished by placing
special emphasis on the importance and necessity of prayer, Eucharistic
devotion, and Marian devotion, in addition to catechetical instruction and
formation in the Catholic faith.

Comments
from Past Participants
The impact of the team members, who were energetic, faithful, and fun role-models, with rock solid teaching was tremendous. As a DRE/Youth Minister it was a blessing to have them here at St. Peter's Parish. Seeing the vitality of their faith was inspiring and gives me great hope for the future!
-Phil Lawson -
DRE/Youth Minister - St. Peter's Parish
I believe the Totus Tuus program is something we've needed for a long time. It is so important for our young people to be exposed to young adults who so passionately live and preach the truth of Christ, and embrace & love his Church.
-Daniel R. Kitzhaber - Youth Minister - St. John/Christ the King Parish
The team had a great
attitude, I wish we had more young adults with their attitude and commitment.
