Small Groups
Peer to peer support is crucial at Drexel. FOCUS (Fellowship of Catholic University Students) is a missionary organization dedicated to accompany students in understanding and deepening their faith while in college. We host weekly bible studies for men and women, discipleship groups for students who desire mentorship in becoming a leader on campus, as well as mission trips, conferences, and fun events throughout the year.
This year the Drexel Missionaries are Katie Creamer, Rebecca Richards, Enrique Alegria, Dominique Brutus, Isaac Cotnoir. Please reach out to Rebecca Richards (rebecca.richards@focus.org) if you are interested in getting involved!
