Fellowship of Catholic University Students Announces Four-City 'FOCUS Conference 2011'

Building on the popularity of their national conferences, traditionally held in a single location every two years and drawing thousands of attendees from across the country, FOCUS now aims to make it easier for young adults everywhere to experience, firsthand, what have been life-changing events for so many people over the years.

The cities and dates for FOCUS Conference 2011:

    --  Minneapolis/St. Paul, MN (Jan. 7-9)
    --  Denver, CO (Jan. 14-16)
    --  Baltimore, MD (Jan. 21-23)
    --  Nashville, TN (Jan. 28-30)

Each city will feature several dynamic keynote speakers, presenters and workshops geared toward young adults seeking to better understand how their skills and gifts can be applied to where they are being called to serve and strengthen the Church.

"FOCUS began with a conference. It has always been integral to what we are and what we stand for," said Curtis Martin, founder and president of FOCUS. "With these events, we are inviting students to gather together, away from the day-to-day bustle of campus, to think about God's call in their lives and give them guidance and the necessary tools to better understand how they can strengthen and serve the Church using the talents unique to them."

A variety of sponsorship opportunities are available for these conferences. For details and information, please contact Jeremy Rivera at 303-551-7388 or jrivera@focusonline.org.
