As many of you know it is nearly impossible to work in a ministry job or for the Church and make a wage that is suitable to raise a family. This is a fact and unfortunately, the Church cannot afford the amazing men and women in the world to work for Her efforts.
Fortunately, FOCUS believes in a just wage for the worker (Luke 10:7). FOCUS provides a system that allows anyone the ability to earn an income suitable to raise a family. The system set forth works. From the top down, everyone has Mission Partners who provide their financial support. At the same time we, as missionaries, must not solely seek the gift of the financial support, but instead the partnership in spreading the Gospel (Phil 4:8-20).
Mission Partners are people who invest in the program of FOCUS by financially supporting missionaries in their work (Malachi 3:7-10). By monthly donations, completely tax exempt, missionaries are able to pay for the same bills everyone else has including rent, insurance, food etc. Without the support and partnership of Mission Partners, we at FOCUS could not do the work we do and college students across the nation would not receive the outreach they currently do.
