FOCUS Minnesota has designated July as Focus on FOCUS month for the Twin Cities! This month of awareness and action is a great time to join the FOCUS community by getting involved in the many service opportunities we have for you. In the Twin Cities there are already a number of projects that have already been completed:
- Mary’s Campers filled 100 backpacks with school supplies for FOCUS clients.
- Friends of FOCUS are hosting a summer dance party on July 28th to raise funds and awareness for FOCUS Minnesota.
- Mary’s Greek Orthodox Church is hosting a drive to collect food pantry items all month!
Do you have an idea on how you can support FOCUS Minnesota during Focus on FOCUS Month? Tell us what you’re doing and remember these three easy ways to get involved right here in the Twin Cities:
PRAY for FOCUS Minnesota in your July prayers and Liturgical petitions.
GIVE your time as a volunteer for our Clothes Closet, Food Pantry, or Sandwich Making ministries.
SERVE your community by stopping by our new FOCUS House to learn more about us!
If your parish is outside of the Twin Cities – you can still join FOCUS in our mission to serve the needs of our neighbors who are hungry, homeless, lonely, unemployed, under-served and often forgotten! Across the country, parishes can serve alongside FOCUS by joining one of our national initiatives like back to school backpacks.
