  7. Everything listed in this update is a result of Mosaicians responding with imagination, ideas, time, energy and especially PRAYERS seeking continued guidance from God. All we’ve done and are doing is a result of the way we have chosen to recognize ways God is moving and growing us as a church family. You are embodying what it means to be the church in many ways; some of those ways can be articulated and some we recognize as God’s moves among us. I’m thankful to God for this church family. Articulation Attempts for God’s Guidance? • I can at least keep a list of the things we’re working on. • There is no list that will harness all that God already does with us, with all the playing and volunteering and worshiping and connecting and questioning and Sabbathing and God literally knows what else God’s doing with us as we clumsily grow together in Christ.
