The Serra Club of Greater Chattanooga recently made a $4,000 contribution through the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga (UTC) Catholic Student Center to support the evangelization efforts of FOCUS (Fellowship of Catholic University Students) missionaries who work on UTC’s campus.
FOCUS is a Catholic collegiate outreach whose mission is to share the hope and joy of the Gospel with college and university students.
The mission of the Serra Club is to foster, affirm, and promote vocations to the priesthood and vowed religious life. The board of directors of the Chattanooga-area Serra Club felt that a contribution to aid the FOCUS missionaries on UTC’s campus was very much in line with its mission.
The missionaries of FOCUS are trained in Church teaching, prayer, sacred Scripture, evangelization, and discipleship. They encounter students in friendship where they are, inviting them into a personal relationship with Jesus Christ and accompanying them as they pursue lives of virtue and excellence.
To learn more about the Serra Club and its ongoing mission to foster and promote vocations, follow the club on Facebook at The Serra Club of Greater Chattanooga.
