It’s 2025, and we’re stepping into the new year with hearts set on reaching both the campus of Texas Christian University and the greater Fort Worth community with the gospel of Jesus.
With one foot on campus and the other in the community, we’re excited to see what God has in store. Here’s a quick look back at how January unfolded:
We kicked off the year by sending our Campus Missionary, Bria Lacour, and four students to the 2025 Every Nation Campus Conference.
Nearly 2,800 attendees from 271 campuses across 35 nations gathered to worship God and be sent out to share His gospel.
What began as a national event has truly transformed into a multiethnic, multigenerational global gathering—a beautiful glimpse of heaven touching earth.
One of the most unforgettable moments for our church was witnessing one of our students accept God’s call to ministry. This decision not only marked a significant turning point for them but also inspired us all.
None of this would have been possible without your prayers and support. Your generosity played a vital role in equipping the next generation to live out the mission of Jesus—THANK YOU!
Fueled by the spiritual renewal of ENC 2025, our students returned with hearts on fire for Jesus, eager to share how He met them and transformed their lives.
Their passion is clear: Jesus can meet you right where you are and change your life too!
One way this passion is spreading on campus is through ENC Fridays at TCU.
Twice a month, faith, food, and fun collide as students gather to grow in their faith and build community. And on the off weeks, they connect for “coffee and convos”—or as some of us might call it, meaningful conversations over a good cup of coffee.
God is clearly weaving together a beautiful story on campus, and we’re grateful for every part of it.
As for the greater Fort Worth community, we launched into the year with Vision Sunday, turning our hearts to God’s mission through our local church.
Together, we wrestled with a question every believer should ask daily:
“What kind of person does the world need right now?”
We explored four defining marks of that person—marks that can transform lives, campuses, communities, and, ultimately, the world. Vision Sunday set the tone for a year of living by intentional faith that makes a lasting impact—where we live, work, and play.
Following Vision Sunday, we joined over 700 Every Nation churches worldwide for a week of prayer, fasting, and consecration themed “The Cross and What It Means for Fallen Humanity.”
The cross became more than a symbol—it’s the foundation of everything we believe and do as disciples and ministers of the gospel.
As we fasted and prayed daily, we experienced God’s abundant grace and the unshakable assurance of His love, secured through Jesus’ sacrifice on the cross.
With renewed hearts and a deeper understanding of the cross, believers worldwide are entering this year confident that God is at work—on our campuses, in our communities, and through every conversation, act of service, and step of faith.
Another exciting highlight to celebrate is our Cross-Cultural Missionary, Joice Villamor, who recently completed her training.
Joice will oversee our discipleship and outreach ministries, helping individuals and families grow in faith and experience Jesus’ love.
Join us in prayer for Joice and financially partnering with her mission.
Every gift, regardless of amount, helps Joice as she answers God’s call to focus her life’s mission on making discipleship and outreach possible in Fort Worth and beyond.
From the powerful moments at the 2025 ENC Conference to the impact of Vision Sunday and our week of prayer and fasting, it’s clear that God is moving mightily.
Your faithfulness—through serving, giving, and showing up—makes this possible.
Together, we’re seeing lives transformed, leaders raised, and the hope of Jesus spreading across campuses and communities. As we press on, may God’s love, peace, and power fill you and guide you in His will for your life.
Thank you for being part of the incredible story He’s writing through His church, Mosaic Church Fort Worth.
To God be the glory—great things He has done and greater things He will do!
