FOCUS :: Commission 2008

Fellowship of Christian Unions (FOCUS-KENYA) is a movement of Christian students in universities and colleges in Kenya that seeks to prepare students in all areas of life. FOCUS is an interdenominational and non-profit movement comprising of 38 affiliated Christian Unions in Kenya's public and private universities and colleges. We serve over 10,000 students who are members of the CUs in their campuses. FOCUS-KENYA is also affiliated to the International Fellowship of Evangelical Students IFES.

Why all that?? After every three years, FOCUS organizes a Mission conference dubbed COMMISSION which brings together young people from colleges and universities from all over Africa. They spend six days together thinking through issues of mission - global, regional and national, being facilitated by leading global voices in the world of mission. At the end of this year (29th Dec - 4th Jan 09), FOCUS shall bring together at least 3,000 participants drawn from all over Africa and beyond hosted at Kabarak University. This will be a transforming moment for those who will attend. The charges are Kshs.7, 800 for every participant. But there is good news for every one who is currently a student (and can produce evidence to the same effect).
Every student will pay Kshs.3, 800, a subsidy of Kshs.4, 000.
