We can all agree that Parenting is a wonderful, difficult, confusing, frustrating and beautiful journey! Sometimes we forget we aren't alone - and that we aren't expected to just know it all... which is why we are here to team with you as a ministry! We try to offer a couple parent nights each year on focused topics to equip and empower you to lead your students well! Join us for our 2023-2024 Parent Training Nights covering these important topics!
1. The Teenage Brain (Nov 15 2023)
--- What is going on up there? What is happening developmentally? What is normal behavior? --- How can I work with their brain's development?
--- If you missed this training you can listen to the podcast covering the topic here: https://open.spotify.com/episode/31xr2KPeZbxRwzWfmMQoiq?si=4utNUVeKS-iNiVEuXEVtWA
2. "BIG" Cultural Questions (March 6th, 2024)
--- In our time, there are a lot of things kids are exposed to whether we like it or not. Come hear about some of the bigger cultural topics that we need to be preparing our kids for with a biblical perspective.
3. Parenting Out of Provision (May 8th, 2024)
--- We have a lot on our plate as parents and we get overwhelmed it can show - big time. How can we manage our own emotions / expectations / plans with the Lord to parent out of a place of provision instead of scrounging for scraps and just making it by day by day?

Mosaic Camps
It Happens At Camp
Encounters with God's Power in worship and services
Encounters with community through games, cabin times and hangout times
Encounters with the Truth in the Scriptures through Chapel Messages
Jesus is always at work... The question is, are you expecting Him to show up? Are you positioning yourself to hear from Him? Are you choosing to be disciplined in reading the Word, Prayer, Worship, Silence and Solitude?
You can start today with taking time to do a 4x5
Take 5 minutes to Read through a scripture multiple times
Take 5 minutes to Pray and talk to God about what stands out and what you take away from it
Take 5 minutes to Listen to God and see if He has anything else to speak to you
Take 5 minutes to Share with someone else what God is teaching you!

WANT TO DEEPEN YOUR FAITH AND DIVE INTO SERVING JESUS WITH YOUR LIFE?
WE WILL NOT BE OFFERING THE DTC PROGRAM FOR 2024 - 2025 YEAR.
INSTEAD WE WILL BE OFFERING BROADER TRAININGS TO ALL STUDENTS FALL AND WINTER OF 2024-2025
INSTEAD WE WILL BE OFFERING BROADER TRAININGS TO ALL STUDENTS FALL AND WINTER OF 2024-2025
WHAT IS IT?
The DTC Program is a discipleship opportunity for students who have professed faith in Jesus and who want to deepen their faith, understanding, and experience with God!
This program runs from May through May in a 12 month intensive discipleship collective.
In this program students will dive into Foundations of Christianity, how to share their faith, apologetics and will have many opportunities to serve others!
HOW DO I APPLY?
In February of each year we will talk about this program and offer an opportunity to apply!
WHAT HAPPENS AFTER I APPLY?
Once your application is submitted you will be interviewed by pastor Joel, working through your application and talking about key elements.
Once applications and interviews are completed, the adult leadership team will discuss the applicants and determine if they are ready for the challenge and rigor of the program.
Acceptance or 'not yet' letters will then be presented to students who have applied. If accepted students will take 24 hours minimum to pray and seek God in if this is what He is calling them to. If a student receives a 'not yet' letter, Pastor Joel will arrange a time to talk about some of the reasons for the decision and give specific growth areas our team would like to see developed.
WHAT KIND OF WORK AND STUDY IS INVOLVED?
Frist year students will work through a discipleship training lead by Pastor Joel called 'Timothy Training'.
Students will learn the 'Four Symbol Method' for sharing their faith
Students will examine their faith and learn to communicate with clarity why they follow Jesus
Students will work on and learn to articulate their personal Testimony
Students will discuss in depth why Youth Ministry exists and why it is important
Students will do a research project on an influential Christian of History
Aside from these trainings, DTC students will be expected to attend the Vast Majority of events put on by Mosaic and will often help in the planning, set up, operation and clean up of events.
IS THERE A COST?
Yes!
As a DTC student, you will be asked to attend multiple training meetings throughout the year and will be provided some training materials and books est ($80).
You will also be expected to serve in various capacities within youth and we highly encourage you to serve on the kids ministry team one time per month.
In addition to these training meetings you will also be asked to attend the following:
Summer Camp ($325)
Summer Leadership retreat ($150)
Fall youth conference ($150)
Winter camp ($180)
Spring youth conference ($40)
Spring 1 day retreat ($75)
The total of these events and training supplies is estimated at around $1,000 per student.
We believe in the development of our youth and the importance of these opportunities so we put in $200 per student towards these costs and ask for a $800 program fee up front.
We can split this into a couple payments through the year. This 'fee' is actually just the registration costs for the events they are expected to attend.
Committing financially can lead us to commit intentionally with our time, attendance and energy.
We encourage students work to raise this money and pay themselves to increase buy in.
IS IT WORTH IT?
Without Question!
We believe God has already gifted and called young people to have an immense impact for His Kingdom! As Paul wrote to Timothy in 1 Tim 4:12 we echo to our students
"Do not let anyone look down on you because you are young. Instead, be the example in faith, love, purity and self control"
You are called, you are capable, you are gifted by the Spirit of God to do great works!
It's time to step into your calling!
