Fun February

 

Fun February

It was been another incredible month of ministry this month! I hope you enjoy this month's ministry update and are encouraged by all the exciting things going on at UTD!

Celebrating Black History Month

This month Focus hosted a special event celebrating Black History Month! This was our first-ever showcase celebrating black culture and talent called Release. This year we have been focusing on what it looks like for our community to celebrate and honor the diverse cultures that our students come from. Release was a fun and exciting event to highlight what our students love about their culture and heritage. The event was filled with singing, dancing, and spoken word! It was a hit event! I think our community and the university really enjoyed the whole event.

Focus Alumni

Something that is really neat about this community is the lifelong friends I have gotten to make. It is such a neat chance for our students to meet and befriend other students who become some of their closest friends. It is heartwarming to see our students grow so close with one another and meet people who will be in their lives for a long time. This past month I got to spend time with some of my friends who are now Focus alumni, some of who are even on my support team! This ministry has been such a blessing to me and it's friends like these that remind me of that blessing.

Core Highlight 

Meet Tyler! Tyler is a freshman at UTD and is in my core this year! He has been such a blast to have in our small group these past two semesters and has really shown us what it means to be vulnerable. I have been really glad to hear him share and give his thoughts on all sorts of topics that we have talked about so far in core.

Thank You

Thank you so much for your support this year in ministry. Getting to work in campus ministry has been such a fun and blessed experience and it's through your support and prayers that I get to do this wonderful job and pour into the students of UTD. Thank you so much!
