As part of the Totus Tuus team, a teacher has the tremendous privilege and challenge of spreading the Gospel throughout the Archdiocese of Chicago. This challenge is accepted with great joy! The teams come to know and love the vitality, faith, and courage of all the youth they encounter. These youth are the future and hope of the next millennium. Today’s youth are hungry for a greater understanding of the Truth contained in Sacred Scripture and Sacred Tradition, as guided by the Magisterium.  The youth are seeking not just role models, but heroes who are striving to live and proclaim, “Lord, I will be totally yours”. With joy and honor, Totus Tuus teams serve these youth by sharing the gifts that God has given to them. 

As a Totus Tuus teacher, you commit to traveling in a four-person team and teaching in parishes for seven weeks. Teachers also complete one week of training in the curriculum and program, and have a break during the week of the July 4th holiday. Finally, teachers also take part in a mid-summer and summer-end spiritual retreat.
