YOU ASKED. HERE'S WHY.

Over the past week, 555 people have participated in our community survey. More than 98% said they would like to see FOCUS remain in Hamilton.

Thank you.

One question keeps appearing in the comments:

Why does FOCUS need more space?

Because FOCUS is more than a store.

Today, the Philomena Family Center serves individuals and families through our Food Pantry, Emergency Services, Celebrate Recovery, Fitness Programs, and Level Up Youth Program.

Our vision for the Philomena Resource Center is to create opportunities for tomorrow through workforce development, job training, purposeful volunteering, and the UP Next Program.

Together, on one campus, they create a pathway from crisis to confidence and from dependence to independence.

Our desire remains the same:

To bring the Philomena Resource Center alongside the Philomena Family Center, creating one campus where support, training, and community services can work together to better serve Harris County families.

Thank you for your support, your prayers, and your willingness to be part of this conversation.

We're Better Together. 💛💚💙

FOCUS Ministries is a faith-based nonprofit in Hamilton, GA serving Harris County through food assistance, recovery programs, thrift stores, youth programs, emergency services, and community outreach.

💚 You are not alone. 💚

Life can get heavy. Hurt, addiction, anxiety, grief, anger, depression, broken relationships… we all carry things we were never meant to carry alone.

At Celebrate Recovery, you’ll find a safe place to heal, grow, and be reminded that God still has hope for your story.

✨ Real people.
✨ Real struggles.
✨ Real hope.

Join us Thursday at 5:30pm as we walk this journey together through fellowship, live worship, encouragement, and recovery.

“Cast all your anxiety on Him because He cares for you.” 1 Peter 5:7
