Building a culture of chastity
Practicing the virtue of chastity opens a person to real freedom. But don't expect to hear that in popular culture, according to a Catholic educator in the archdiocese. For the past six years, Gretchen Pacheco has served as a chastity educator for the REAP Team, the archdiocese's youth retreat ministry. During the 2009-10 school year, the REAP Team reached more than 12,000 young people through 177 retreats. Since the ministry's inception 21 years ago, it has presented 2,881 events, reaching almost 200,000 individuals.
