jenna311 Posted December 28, 2007 Share Posted December 28, 2007 I've been waiting for this since our campus retreat last January. Curtis Martin [the founder of FOCUS] came to speak to us and told us where the conference would be. I can't believe it is finally here! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was great getting back at 6:30 in the morning and then having to go to class that day. [Luckily, my class wasn't until 4:30!]. The longest ride I heard of was from Maryland--they had a 27 hour ride. I don't drink coffee, so I didn't stop by the table, I only passed by it several times.

God bless- LGLG[/quote] FOCUS is the Fellowship of Catholic University Students. They send teams of missionaries [usually four--two men and two women] to campuses around the U.S. They tend to work in conjunction with an already established Catholic campus ministry, and lead Bible studies and form leaders. January 2-6, FOCUS had its National Student Leadership Conference in Grapevine, TX.
