Connect Des Moines

Join Your Community

The Connect Event is an annual gathering, for each Community of Mission, designed to bring local FOCUS alumni and friends together for an evening of connection, prayer, and mission. Meet others in your city, hear the vision for your local Community of Mission, and discover ways to stay connected and involved throughout the year.
 

What To Expect

Mission

Your daily life is your mission field. Discover the Community of Mission, where local Catholics gather to encourage one another to know Christ and make Him known in everyday life.

Fellowship

Enjoy a relaxed, welcoming gathering with good food, easy conversation, and the kind of atmosphere where you can simply show up, be yourself, and connect naturally with others.

Conversation

Engage in meaningful discussion about living as a missionary disciple in your current season. Share experiences, hear from others, and be inspired in your own apostolate.

Connection

Build and deepen meaningful friendships with other FOCUS alumni and local Catholics. Whether you’re new or have been here for years, this is a chance to get to know others in the area and be reminded you’re not meant to do this alone.

“It was incredible to connect with other alumni I didn’t even know were living nearby. We prayed, shared a meal, and talked of how to ignite the community we all love so much.” -Dr. Alec Maly
