In more ways than one, September reminded us of a simple truth that we often may miss:
What God grows, lasts.
God’s faithfulness doesn’t follow a calendar and keeps showing up in fresh ways on campus, in our community, and in every life being changed through Mosaic Church Fort Worth.
At TCU, the semester is in full swing. From weekly tabling to every-other-week ENC nights and fun outreach events like Mario Kart Tournaments and Just Dance, there’s a steady rhythm of life on campus.
But beneath the games and gatherings, something deeper is happening.
God is using Campus Missionary Bria Johnson (got married this month! 🥳) and a group of student leaders to establish a discipleship culture that meets students where they are, helping everyone encounter His presence and truth in real ways that spiritually form and mature who they are becoming in Jesus.
Let’s keep praying for salvations, baptisms, and transformed lives as these students carry the hope of Jesus into their friendships, families, and future careers.
If you’ve ever wanted to make a difference that lasts beyond a semester, consider sponsoring a student’s trip to the 2026 ENC Conference. Every dollar helps send a story of transformation.
In 2023, three students had their lives changed. In 2024 and 2025, that number doubled. Now, we’re believing for 15 students to attend, with the Spirit moving 10 to commit already.
Your support—whether $250, $500, or even $7,500 to sponsor the entire group—can help make that happen!
And the same Spirit that’s stirring hearts on campus is also shaping the next generation right here in our community.
Since our arrival in Fort Worth, we’ve prayed for God to send the right people and the right time to help us create a safe, Jesus-centered environment for our kids, now approaching 20-25 weekly.
Well, this September, God answered those prayers. Our dear friends Luke and Holly Smith, along with their five kids, moved from our Mosaic North Campus in Austin to help launch mKids Fort Worth.
From now through early 2026, Holly is leading and training a growing team to create a space where kids can laugh, learn, and worship together through fun lessons, games, and activities.
We hope to grow a team of 8–10 volunteers and transition from offering mKids once a month to a full weekly ministry by spring 2026.
Please keep the Smith family and our mKids team in prayer as we help these young hearts grow into disciples who make disciples.
We also celebrated another milestone: the completion of our first Making Disciples Training.
This course equipped men and women to follow Jesus wholeheartedly and lead others to do the same—right where they live, work, and play.
It was a beautiful reminder that discipleship isn’t just a class. It’s a calling we get to and are called to live out together by Jesus himself (Matthew 28:19-20).
Two years ago, we stepped out in faith, with a dream and a vision of what God could do.
Today, we stand amazed at all He has done, proof that what God plants, He makes grow.
Thank you for believing with us, serving alongside us, and helping Mosaic Church Fort Worth shine the love of Jesus across our city.
And as we look ahead, we hold fast to this truth: what God grows, lasts.
