Sunday morning, December 4th, was our first Sunday morning worship gathering. We were not sure what to expect and who would come. God has blessed our Monday night gatherings and the time was so spiritually rich. We certainly hoped and prayed that moving to Sunday mornings would not lose any of the spiritual momentum that was developing on Monday nights.

Once again, God honored and blessed our time together. The church building we meet in has many physical needs, but one area where that old building sparkles is in its stained glass windows. Almost all of those windows have a picture of Jesus in them and it is like Jesus is surrounding us as we worship. In our evening meetings we could not see their beauty, but in the morning I was overwhelmed by them.

44 people attended our first morning worship gathering, praise God! Many first time guests were in attendance. We celebrated the goodness of God and Claude spoke on rebuilding. He has first hand experience as he and his wife have lost about everything because of hurricane Katrina.

God wants to rebuild the ruins that have been devastated for generations. He wants to transform communities and bring glory to His name. Mosaic is blessed to be a part of what God is doing.

This Wednesday @ 11:30 we come to another very important moment in time. God is in control and He has orchestrated our steps at every turn. We are so confident of that. I meet with the city official who is responsible for delegating funds for urban renewal in our area. We are praying for favor and God's will to be accomplished. Please join us in prayer.

I pray God will bless you and you sense His love so powerfully during this Christmas season.
