College campuses are ground zero for the battle over faith and meaning — and Curtis Martin believes that’s exactly where the next generation of saints will rise.

Curtis Martin is the Founder and Chief Mission Officer of the Fellowship of Catholic University Students (FOCUS), one of the most dynamic Catholic evangelization movements in the world.

Curtis has advised both St. John Paul II and Pope Benedict XVI as a member of the Vatican’s Pontifical Council for the New Evangelization, and he was awarded the Pro Ecclesia et Pontifice medal for distinguished service to the Church.
