Totus Tuus is an organization created to guide individuals through a thirty-three day Marian Consecration retreat. The name Totus Tuus, which means Totally Yours, was Saint John Paul II’s coat of arms while he was Pope. As the name suggests, a Marian Consecration is the act of entrusting oneself to the Immaculate Heart of Our Blessed Mother and giving themselves completely to Her. The process is straight forward and simple, yet the rewards are immeasurable and life changing.

The thirty-three day guided retreat consists of an independent daily reading that takes approximately 5-10 minutes from the book, “33 Days to Morning Glory,” written by Fr. Michael Gaitley. In addition to the independent reading, Totus Tuus will meet one hour per week for six weeks, to recap the weekly readings and share in fellowship of the process.

Young professionals  gather once a month to explore topics pertinent to the faith followed by a social. The group meets one Friday a month at 7:30PM in the convent chapel.  Email to find out meeting dates.
