This fall gave us more than cooler weather and changing leaves.
With it arrived moments that reminded us what love looks like when it takes shape in everyday life.
In every corner of our church family, God continues to move through moments, relationships, and stories that make this season truly special for our community and campus.
As everyone settled into the fall rhythm, we launched our series We Have A Part To Play.
Over six weeks, we explored how God shapes the world within us—through our bodies, souls, relationships, work, tech, and mission—all for the sake of the world around us.
We were encouraged and challenged to be transformed by God and to love Him, one another, our city, and the world well.
Because that’s what it means to invite God into the most practical moments of everyday life.
On campus, loving like Jesus takes many shapes. Whether students were painting pumpkins or playing volleyball in the sand, ENC experienced both natural and supernatural growth.
By faithfully living and preaching the gospel as we engage on campus, we’re seeing students encounter the Gospel of Jesus and connect with our local church in beautiful ways—right where they are.
And the same in the community, God’s grace continues to open doors to reach new individuals and families.
This fall, we participated in Rolling Hills Elementary’s school carnival for the second year and joined the Ventana community’s National Night Out for the first time.
Both outreach events were amazing opportunities to serve and make God’s presence known through games, food, and genuine relationships.
One of the most memorable moments came at National Night Out.
A father and daughter approached our cotton candy booth and asked how much it cost. When we told them it was free, the father paused and asked why we would do such a thing.
Our response was simple: this is one of many ways God wants you to know He sees you, knows you, and loves you.
More than the cotton candy, his heart was touched by God’s love meeting him right where he was.
Whether he ever visits our church or not, God reached him and his family in that moment. God cares for us all—young, old, and everyone in between.
Speaking of caring for all ages, we held our first mKids’ Interest Meeting in October.
Parents, kids, and volunteers gathered to learn about mKids and how they’ll play a part in helping raise our next generation to be transformed by God and to learn to love as He loves us.
Please keep mKids in your prayers as we train up leaders and trust God’s timing to send laborers and harvest in launching a weekly ministry for the community to love and be more like Jesus.
In October, we also traveled to Austin for our Every Nation All Staff Cluster—a gathering that brings Every Nation churches in the southwest region together for fellowship, equipping, and encouragement.
It was refreshing to connect with other churches in our family and be reminded we’re part of something bigger.
And last but not least, we launched our church-wide Mosaic Community, where we practically grow, serve, and keep Jesus at the center by studying and walking out His Word together.
We’re expressing His love where we live, work, and play—currently meeting on the third Friday of each month, with our hearts set on meeting weekly as God provides.
As you can see, these highlights, along with so many other moments together, are why this truly was A Fall to Love.
God keeps writing His story through ordinary people who say yes (that’s you!), and you continue to play a vital part in what God is doing through this local church.
Thank you for praying, giving, serving, and helping Mosaic shine the love of Jesus throughout Fort Worth.
We can’t wait to see what God unfolds next in His story through this church and beyond.
