Who We Are

Lord’s Gym Ministries, borne of the Foundation of Compassionate American Samaritans (FOCAS), began in 1993 serving in the urban core of Greater Cincinnati transforming lives and seeing people grow strong in the Lord (Ephesians 6:10).

We are committed to being good stewards of the resources entrusted to us, operating with disciplined spending, streamlined processes, and a no-frills approach that prioritizes mission over overhead.
