What is a Focus Missionary?

Focus Missionaries are members of the Fellowship of Catholic University Students (FOCUS) who dedicate themselves to evangelization and mentoring on college campuses. They work to build relationships with students, lead Bible studies, and help others grow in their faith. Focus Missionaries often serve for one or more years, living out their Catholic faith and supporting students in their spiritual journeys.

What are some common challenges faced by a Focus Missionary in campus ministry work?

FOCUS Missionaries often encounter challenges such as building trust and forming meaningful relationships with students from diverse backgrounds, navigating busy academic schedules, and effectively balancing personal spiritual growth with the demands of outreach activities. Additionally, they may face the challenge of inspiring student engagement in faith-based events while respecting individual beliefs. Adaptability, resilience, and strong interpersonal skills are essential for overcoming these obstacles and making a lasting impact on campus communities.

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive as a FOCUS Missionary, and why are they important?

To thrive as a Focus Missionary, you need a strong foundation in Catholic faith, evangelization, and leadership, often supported by a bachelor's degree and formal missionary training. Familiarity with digital outreach tools, Bible study materials, and communication platforms is typically required. Exceptional interpersonal skills, cultural sensitivity, and the ability to inspire and mentor others are crucial soft skills. These abilities are essential for effectively engaging with students, building faith communities, and promoting spiritual growth on college campuses.

About St John XXIII Catholic Church

Saint John XXIII exists so that we might deepen our discipleship in Jesus Christ and bring Him to the Colorado State University Campus, providing refuge and light in the darkness so that all might be rescued and have abundant life.


Men’s Coordinator of Campus Ministry:  Position Overview

The role of the Men’s Campus Ministry Coordinator is to create an environment in which college students can encounter Jesus Christ, be known and loved, and be formed into missionary disciples. Our Campus Ministry Coordinators play a key role in bringing to life the mission of RamCatholic by executing impactful events, retreats, and formation opportunities that draw students deeper into relationship with Jesus Christ and His Church. The role is primarily responsible for the  execution of larger scale RamCatholic events and works closely with our FOCUS missionary team to support and strengthen FOCUS Bible study and discipleship initiatives. 


The Men’s Campus Minister specifically is responsible for keeping his finger on the pulse of the men in RamCatholic. Alongside male FOCUS missionaries and our clergy, he actively seeks opportunities to build wider fraternity amongst the men within RamCatholic.  This will be accomplished by challenging men into deeper commitment as disciples and by calling men to discover their mission and vocation in the Church. The Men’s Campus Minister should also have a heart for encountering the lost, and should personally embrace the parish of Saint John XXIII and RamCatholic as a home. With an eye on the broader student community, he will work to make RamCatholic a refuge and light for every college student that walks through our doors, and he will serve as a resource and connector for each student we meet on campus.  


The role requires flexibility, generosity, and availability; working 2-3 evenings/nights a week for RamCatholic events and our Candlelight Mass and working occasional weekends for retreats and ministry events. This role will work in close collaboration with our Women’s Campus Minister and the Director of Campus Ministry, along with the FOCUS Team Director, to ensure that the vision and mission of RamCatholic is successful and fruitful. The position will have an initial 90 day probationary period where the organization and employee can determine fit. The employee will receive an evaluation after the 90 day period.
