In the darkness and stillness of the night Jesus was born.
“We wait in the darkness, expectantly, longingly.
In the darkness we can see the splendour of the universe –
blankets of stars,
the solitary glowings of the planets.
In the darkness of the womb,
Mortals are nurtured
And the Christ-child was made ready for the journey into light.
In the darkness the wise three found the star
That led them to you.
In the darkness of dreams you spoke to Joseph
And the wise ones
And you speak still to us.
In the darkness of despair and distress we watch
For a sign of hope from the Light of Lights.” (prayer rhythms)

Mosaic is going to experiment by sending everyone out on a summer project.
What is this and why are we doing it?
- We’re modelling this after Independent Study Projects which many have already done in school
- Working on separate distinct projects fits well with our current decentralized mode of church
- We wanted to practice living highly intentional with the moments we’ve been given on earth
- We’re hoping the 6-8 week span of the summer will allow us to do something substantial, maybe even remarkable
- The cross-learning of what God is doing in our own circles as we’re living intentionally ought to be quite enriching
- Christ-like character building is of primal importance to us, and we’re hoping that as we step out in action doing all that is good, beautiful, and true in the name of Christ, our character will be forged in the process
Everybody ends up somewhere. But very few people end up somewhere on purpose.
We want to soak in every bit of opportunity at life we have this summer, and all the end of the it all be able to answer the question “This Summer I… ” knowing we lived well in light of God.
Below is a few generic items mentioned that you could commit yourself to this summer. Feel free to think far beyond this as well.
