The Most Holy Body & Blood of Christ Totus Tuus Summer Youth Program, Yeh!!
I am excited that this Summer we will again offer Totus Tuus summer program to our youth. It will be held the week of
July 11-16 at Holy Rosary Church parish center.
Do not let your child miss this!
The program, organized by the Diocese of Portland’s Office of Vocations, leads participants on an age-appropriate encounter with the timeless treasures of the Catholic faith through dynamic and faith-filled content that inspires young people to live the call of the Gospel in today’s world.
Teams of men and women, including seminarians and college students, are hired each year through a rigorous selection process and spend the first two weeks of the Summer in training. In collaboration with local pastors and parish coordinators, the teams spend the remainder of the Summer traveling throughout the diocese conducting the program.Totus Tuus features daily Mass, prayer, classroom teaching, lunch, games, and more.
In the words of Fr. Seamus, our vocations director, “this program is really well-suited to smaller parishes in the sense that it’s really an attempt to help provide resources to parishes to do a Summer program that they otherwise might not be able to do. It has been and continues to be really well received in Maine parishes. After having to postpone last year due to the pandemic, we are looking forward to having Totus Tuus back this summer.”Registration may be made on line or by calling the office in Caribou, 498-2536. If anyone wishes to make a donation toward this program to help with materials, food and help with registration fees, please make checks out to Parish of the Precious Blood.
Thank you for your support,
Fr. Dave
