Make Friends & Meet Jesus

Focus is a community

For International Students

FOCUS is a community for international students. We know that living in a foreign country is hard, so we want to help you enjoy your time here: make some friends, explore Brisbane and beyond, be supported, and have fun together. And we know there is more to life than study, so we want to learn about Jesus who teaches us a life well lived.
We welcome everyone, from every background, and would love to meet you soon at our weekly meetings or other events.
We meet every week to eat dinner together, make new friends, play some fun games, and learn about Jesus. All this in easy english.
