For the Spring of 2020, following a success trip in 2019, the Fellowship of Catholic University Students (FOCUS) is once again organizing a mission trip and pilgrimage to Mexico City, exclusively open to college Knights.
The dates will be May 15-23, 2020. The cost is $2,150, and FOCUS will provide guidance and assistance with fundraising, should you be accepted.
In the heart of Mexico City, you will be working with other Knights and the Hope of the Poor organization to assist those on the farthest edges of society: from homeless children and elderly, infirm women, to families living in extreme conditions to survive. You will also have the opportunity to encounter Our Lady of Guadalupe at the National Basilica, the world’s most visited pilgrimage site, nearly every day. In addition, you can go on the “Camino de San Juan Diego,” walking in his footsteps along with the footsteps of Knights from the early 1900’s.
The itinerary is still being finalized, but this trip will include:
If you are interested in taking part in this special trip, please apply directly with FOCUS. Applications are due by January 15, 2020. More information and application details can be found at https://focusoncampus.org/missions/trips/latin-america/mexico-city
