let’s talk: parenting and faith questions

Are your kids asking challenging questions about faith—from the deep mystery of the nature of God to wondering where are the dinosaurs in the Bible? Join our Parent Discussion Series, meeting for 5–6 weeks between Jan and Feb, where we share insights and navigate these conversations together. While we don't guarantee final answers, this space is designed to point you in the direction to explore these topics further. Location and timing will be determined by the group. Please contact Albert (czwong@gmail.com) to sign up.

Inclement Weather Plan at Mosaic

Every winter, we watch the forecast closely and coordinate with people living in various neighborhoods to make a decision on whether to meet for worship when there’s inclement weather. We will make the decision by the two-hour mark before worship so that people have advanced notice of our plans. If you see no notice of changes then it is a typical Sunday. When we do make changes we will communicate by 8:30am on our website and social media platforms that include various text groups to spread news as widely as possible.
