Totus Tuus 2023

Are you looking for a stocking stuffer for a special child in your life? Consider giving him or her “The Gift of Totus Tuus.”

Every summer, the Diocese of Burlington has offered students in grades K-12 the chance to participate in a weeklong faith immersion experience called “Totus Tuus.” Summer might seem a long way off, but many families begin planning their summer break well in advance.

That’s why this Advent season we are happy to announce the dates for Totus Tuus 2023:

In addition, every parish has been given a set of “Give the Gift of Totus Tuus” sponsorship cards. These cards are a creative way to save the date while also pledging your financial support to that special child in your life. Here’s how it works:

Step 1: Pick out one of the cards from the back of the
church or from the parish office.

Step 2: Fill out the “To” and “From” lines with the
appropriate names.

Step 3: Choose which location and date work best
for the young person’s family.

Step 4: Place the card in the child’s stocking
for Christmas.

These are neither gift cards nor registration cards. By filling them out, you simply are making a promise to that special young person that you will register him or her for Totus Tuus once sign-ups begin in the spring. It will also help you better plan your family’s summer so that you can make certain that Totus Tuus will be a part of it.

Here is what people are saying about Totus Tuus:

the summer!” — Totus Tuus parent

“Totus Tuus is one of the most rewarding experiences for kids and the parish community. I would recommend it for anyone.” — Totus Tuus missionary
