We come through all these things triumphantly victorious, by the power of him who loved us. For I am certain of this: neither death nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nothing already in existence and nothing still to come, nor any power, nor the heights nor the depths, nor any created thing whatever, will be able to come between us and the love of God, known to us in Christ Jesus our Lord. Romans chapter 8, 37-39

Totus Tuus and its members are faithful to the Catholic Church and loyal to the teaching of the Magisterium. Thus, we know the importance of being part of Christ’s mystical body. Jesus gives all his members, laity included (cf. LG 34), the capacity of offering through their lives that worship which he himself called "worshipping the Father in Spirit and truth." (Jn 4:23)

According to the second Vatican Council, in this transcendent priestly reality of Christ’s mystery, the laity is called to offer their whole lives as a spiritual sacrifice, thus cooperating with the entire Church in the Redeemer’s continual consecration of the world. This is the laity’s great mission:

"For all their works, prayers and apostolic endeavors, their ordinary married and family life, their daily occupations, their physical and mental relaxation, if carried out in the Spirit, and even the hardships of life, if patiently borne—all these become ‘spiritual sacrifices acceptable to God through Jesus Christ.’ Together with the offering of the Lord’s body, they are most fittingly offered in the celebration of the Eucharist. Thus, as those everywhere who adore in holy activity, the laity consecrates the world itself to God." (cf. LG 34; CCC 901)

Currently, Totus Tuus operates a retreat house, church and children’s hospice in Bogotá, Colombia. With the help of generous and faithful donors, a new hospice is currently under construction that will expand the number of beds available so Totus Tuus can help 70 to 100 children per year. Additionally, a chapel and underground burial chamber are being built

Totus Tuus’s vision is to expand our programs to other Latin American countries, the United States and other countries around the world to reach children who are terminally ill and have been abandoned. To spread this vision and build more civilizations of love around the world, we need your help.

Totus Tuus is a non-profit, private organization that helps abandoned, terminally ill children. We help them cope with their pain, fear and isolation by providing a home, medical care, nutrition, spiritual guidance, hope and, above all else, an abundance of love. We currently operate a hospice, retreat center and church in Bogotá, Colombia but our vision encompasses helping children around the world.

Besides providing hospice care for abandoned terminally ill children, we also promote our charity and evangelization programs, which help spread our message and will make it possible for us to reach out more terminally ill children around the world.


Lord, make me an instrument of your peace.
