May always has a feeling of excitement to it, like the first on-ramp as we head out on a road trip. There are end of the school year activities (final games and performances, more field trips, etc.). There are more “real days of sun,” and therefore decreased motivation for “real work.” Locally, Ski to Sea Weekend seems to be a teaser for the summer. With all of this and more in mind, I have been thinking about the summer ahead. Perhaps you are like me and desire to enter summer with some intentionality. What if we intentionally entered the new season with purpose, rather than passivity? What if we “made friends” with the realities of summer (with all the pluses and minuses of its spontaneity, etc.)? What if we considered a purposeful balance of work and play? I wonder how the season ahead would be different?
Over the next 2 weeks at Mosaic, I would like to consider these thoughts with you, as well as consider how they relate (or not) to God’s gift of Sabbath, and the mandate of creation. As we prepare for these discussions, think on these questions:
*What are your deeper hopes for the summer season ahead?
*Where do the realities of life and work intersect with our hopes for the season?
See you soon! ~Aaron

Mosaic Church of Bellingham
A missional community of people seeking to orient their lives around the life and teaching of Jesus.
Our journey began in the summer of 2006 when a small group of families spent a few days together in NW Montana. We were fed up with our complacency and tendency to "go to church" while not really "being the church".
We went to share, dream and explore what it might look like for us to share our lives together as well as invite others into that process.
Upon returning from our trip, we gathered a group of about 30 people for a backyard BBQ in Bellingham, WA to discuss what it would look like to plant a new faith community that was intent on “being” the church and “being” Jesus. After that evening together we began calling ourselves Mosaic and had several backyard BBQs throughout the summer to continue our exploration of “being”.

We have had an incredible time over the past 19 years and are as committed to our initial vision as we were when we started. We are a little older, we have WAY more children and many of us have more gray hair, but we still love our community.
Many people have come and gone since we started, but the Mosaic would not be the same without them. We hope you will consider exploring your part in the Mosaic as well!
