As a campus ministry of First Presbyterian Church of Berkeley, FoCUS (Fellowship of College and University Students) offers radical hospitality and intentional community for college students in the East Bay; life-giving worship; and thoughtful conversations on topics that matter, all rooted in Jesus Christ. Join us as we seek to live into God’s in-breaking Kingdom, here in Berkeley, and in all the world.

FoCUS is virtually gathering every Wednesday from 8-9 pm. Here is the Zoom Link

All college students are invited to participate in FoCUS Zoom meetings on Wednesday nights. This is a great time for connecting, Bible study, worship and generally supporting each other during this uniquely weird time. If you are just starting at a new school Joe will help you to connect with Christian organizations on your campuses.
