Being the Church in the Community and on Campus.

As the scorching summer temperatures rise, the spirit of community and transformation is soaring even higher in Fort Worth.

June was an extraordinary month of exciting highlights that undeniably God and God alone.

Let’s dive in. Ready? Here we go…

Through God’s providence, I had the honor of meeting with Pastor Kaynenn Parker (Lead Pastor of Pillar.Church) and a group of church planters from East and South Fort Worth.

The time we invested praying, encouraging, equipping, and empowering one another was truly insightful.  Immersed in wisdom from each pastor, we gained profound insights into Fort Worth’s past, present, and future trajectory in light of the collective vision for church planting, saturating greater Fort Worth with the gospel of Jesus.

Living in Fort Worth brings us immense joy, and one of the things we truly cherish is how it embraces newcomers. The friendships we’ve built across diverse demographics have been a remarkable gift, and we’re filled with gratitude for God’s grace in making these connections. 

As we look to the future, we eagerly anticipate more collaborations and the opportunity to forge deeper bonds with this wonderful community.

Our journey of spreading the Gospel continues to flourish on campuses and not just college campuses but also local high schools—O.D. Wyatt High School.

Through divine connections of familial relationships, I recently met with Principal Howard Robinson and the Counseling team. We are prayerfully discussing and planning how Mosaic Church Fort Worth can serve and partner with the school community in the upcoming school year—which is only a few weeks away.

And speaking of community, our Northwest community dinner, hosted by Joseph and Erin Rodriguez, has been growing by leaps and bounds—to God be the glory!

The newly built master-planned community of Cibolo Hills has witnessed hearts opening and connections forming. And the good news is… this is just the beginning because additional phases will bring many more families to the neighborhood!

Pray for more neighbors to attend these gatherings and respond graciously to the Gospel of Jesus in God’s timing.

But that’s not all! As we prepare for college students’ return in less than a week, we’re thrilled to announce the highly anticipated return of the ENC Conference to be held January 2-4, 2024 in Orlando, Florida, at the Orlando World Center Marriott.

Last year, three students—Joya, Isaiah, and Kathleen—attended, encountering God and growing in their faith at ENC 2023 in Orlando, Florida—watch the recap video. 

This year, our faith goal is to send 20 high school and college-aged students from Fort Worth for a low registration price of $149 per student for a three-night hotel stay. For details about ENC 2024, visit the Every Nation Campus web page.

Prayerfully consider partnering to sponsor a student as well as sharing this opportunity with students and parents of students that are high school seniors or college-aged students.

While many more things happened in June, these are a few highlights of how God is establishing us with one foot in the community and the other foot on campus as the practical hands and feet of Jesus.

We are incredibly humbled by your partnership—your monthly gifts, prayers, and belief in God’s vision for transforming lives in Fort Worth. Thank you doesn’t suffice, and know we are grateful beyond measure. 

Lastly, as we pray for deeper connections with God and others, we ask for your prayers as we approach and finalize all details for Launch Sunday—September 10, 2023—and beyond!

Stay tuned for July’s amazing news and updates (we can’t wait to share!) of everything community and campus in Fort Worth. 

That’s all for now. 

God bless,
Pastor Alvin & Mallary Brown
