Totus Tuus is a Latin term meaning "Totally Yours". This title comes from Blessed John Paul II who used it in many of his special writings. This unique and fun-filled program signifies and dedicates our desire to give ourselves entirely to Jesus Christ.
Totus Tuus is a week-long program, specifically for Catholic youth in grades 1st-12th and is dedicated to sharing the Gospel and promoting the Catholic faith through evangelization, catechesis, Christian witness, and Eucharistic worship.
