FOCUS is an apostolate committed to fulfilling Jesus’ Great Commission to make disciples of all nations - and this mission is carried out by missionary teams on college campuses across the country. After graduation Lauren made a 3-year commitment with FOCUS at Nicholls State University in Thibodaux, Louisiana serving the students, primarily student athletes at Nicholls.
“Mission has changed my outlook on what it means to be not only a Catholic, but a daughter of God, and my experience as a missionary has only further convicted me that the Gospel is meant for everyone and the Father’s love knows no bounds! After three years with FOCUS, I felt the Lord inviting me to a different mission field - back to the classroom. I discerned to move back to Charlotte, NC to be closer to family and friends. I accepted a teaching position at St. Mark Catholic School (my home parish) in Huntersville, NC where I am teaching 7th grade Math! I am excited and humbled to work with middle schoolers and be a witness to the joy of the Gospel. I look forward to connecting more Catholics across North Carolina!”
Bishop Jacques Fabre-Jeune, CS, has outlined a vision for the next five years called Via Fidelis. This journey of faith aims to teach Catholics of South Carolina so that we help spread the Gospel and win hearts for God’s goodness, mercy, love, justice and peace.
