Each fall and spring, we set aside 10 weeks to study a book of the Bible together. We believe that God uses His word in powerful ways in our lives to change who we are and how we live–if we want to know God, commune with God and be like Jesus, we need his word. If you are looking for community at Mosaic and looking to experience a richer life with God through his word, we’d love to have you. Our studies incorporate:
Passage exists to see members of Mosaic experience spiritual renewal in their lives through emotional awareness, personal curiosity, vulnerability with God and others and spiritual practices. Our hope is to create an environment where people:
Passage runs in the fall each year and registration opens in the summer.
The Forge Program exists as a training partnership between Eastside Community Church and Mosaic Church to provide a year long theological and biblical immersion program for men and women looking for advanced biblical and theological training. The Forge Program seeks to train men and women in four key areas for the purpose of cultivating deeper life with God, life together, and life on mission:
Forge runs fall–spring of each year. Applications open in May.
Each week when we gather, we want to think strategically about how to create an environment where our children are discipled in the way of Jesus. In each ministry environment, we teach from the Scriptures and help parents proclaim to the next generation who God is and what He has done. Our children, and the children in our city, are not just little minds to keep entertained while the adults worship, but they are current or potential disciples of Jesus.
In light of this, we actively encourage families, at the first moment that children are able, to include their children in the corporate worship of the body as it gathers weekly.
Our current standard is full programming for Mosaic Kids Nursery (birth-2) and Mosaic Kids Preschool (3-Kinder). In these ministries, we focus on weekly lessons that go through the Biblical narrative and connect to one of our four foundational truths (God is Good, Great, Glorious, and Gracious).
We have partial programming for 1st-3rd graders as they sit in on the Sunday gathering with adults for the first portion of it.They are dismissed after our Children’s Moment before the sermon. In this ministry, we focus on the nature and character of God as well as building Bible literacy skills.
For 4th-6th graders, we offer a 10 week Bible Study before service at 9 am in the Fall and Spring. We invite these kids to participate in the corporate gathering with their families. In this ministry, we focus on Bible Study intake and habits within community.
Additionally we provide Family Discipleship Events throughout the year and a regular Family Discipleship Newsletter to help equip parents. Subscribe here.
Children’s Ministry volunteers at Mosaic are required to undergo Ministry Safe training, screening, “on the job” training, and background checks.
We believe that all children are created in the image of God and desire for the Church gathered and scattered to be a place where kids, regardless of ability, are safe, loved, and pointed to Jesus. If your child needs a buddy, please fill out this form or reach out to Lexi Jordan at ljordan@mosaicrichardson.com.
We want our students to participate in our Sunday worship gathering, and we especially want to encourage students to worship alongside their parents and families. While our Sunday worship gathering might not feel like student ministry, this is in large part the springboard of our ministry to students. We want Mosaic Students to feel every bit part of our church and our worship gatherings.

Mosaic groups are led by representatives from at least two households who are members in good standing at Mosaic Church (or have been regular attendees for 3 or more months and are in pursuit of membership. Mixed gender groups must have mixed gender leadership. Leaders are asked to make a one year commitment (August-August or January-January) to lead.
Anyone can participate in a Mosaic group, but we believe that those looking to forge meaningful relationships in our church family and get engaged in life on mission will find them the most beneficial. For groups to work, they need people willing to be committed to prioritizing their participation in the group.
While each group will practice group a little differently: We are asking all Mosaic groups to meet together regularly, fellowship and get to know each other’s stories, use our group reflection guide, when appropriate to regularly engage in family worship together with kiddos as a group, and to participate in Mosaic’s Missional Anchor events: Help Your Neighbor Day, Easter Egg Hunt, National Night Out, Prestonwood Pregnancy Center Christmas Drive.
Mosaic will launch new groups twice a year: in early September and in mid January. We ask people who step into a group to make a 6 month commitment to their group. People are free to participate in other classes or programs while in a Mosaic group, but we ask that they prioritize their group commitment.
A Mosaic Group will be asked to follow the broad schedule of the academic year - with consistent rhythms from September through May. The summer and winter breaks will often be times of “lower activity.”
We are asking Mosaic Groups to meet on Sunday, Monday, or Thursday evenings. A typical month might like the following:
There are lots of faithful ways a group could structure their time, but we believe for groups starting out and trying to build cohesion, community, and clarity...structure and predictability are needed.
