We encounter God in an intimate relationship through daily prayer, the sacraments and the Scriptures.
Hi! My name is Angela, and I am a FOCUS missionary!
“The poverty in the West is a different kind of poverty — it is not only a poverty of loneliness but also of spirituality. There’s a hunger for love, as there is a hunger for God.”
-St. Teresa of Calcutta
I have been called to serve this year at the University of Nevada, Las Vegas! This will be the first year that FOCUS will be present on the UNLV campus! Please keep our team in your prayers! Stay tuned for a photo of myself and my teammates Angeles and Ryan!
Although I grew up attending Catholic schools through high school, I had never understood who I was. I was placing my worth in what others thought of me, and therefore, obviously was living an extremely lonely, anxious, and unfulfilled life. In a bible study my first year at UCLA (Fours Up!), I was finally told the truth of my identity as a beloved daughter, and of the intimate and infinite love that the Father has for me. This truth has utterly transformed my heart and every moment of my life. I am so excited to share the joy, confidence, and love that Christ has granted me as I have fallen deeply in love with Him!
When I answered the call to join FOCUS, I made the decision to rely on the spiritual and financial support of mission partners to help me through this mission. As FOCUS missionaries, we have the opportunity to build a team of generous individuals to spiritually and financially contribute to this Great Commission that Christ has given us as He said, “go and make disciples of all nations” (Matthew 28:19). I’ve been blessed with the most amazing people who have journeyed with me as I serve on campus. If you are interested in partnering with me, please let me know of the best way to reach you and I will schedule an appointment. I’d be honored to share this mission with you!

By building genuine friendships, we meet students on a deeper level.
We teach students how to share the gospel, who in turn teach other students how to pass it on.
