Mission & Vision

w_our_missionHERE YOU'LL CATCH A SENSE of why we exist. Our Mission is an expression that could be true of all churches that are biblically guided. In the Vision Statements you’ll capture a bit of what makes Mosaic unique.




Our Mission

We exist to follow Jesus in authentic community for the world.

Our mission is expressed in three core purposes:

 

Worship

Our deepest joys are experienced when we follow Jesus and live fully engaged in His mission.

Community

We belong, mature and become influential in relationships characterized by unity, grace and truth.

Mission

We are called to use the resources entrusted to us to express the love and hope of Jesus to the Mosaic community, Portland, the Pacific Northwest, and through international partnerships.

Our Vision 

We are committed to regularly sending leaders and people to start other churches locally and regionally.

We see ourselves meeting in a large network of smaller groups where people can journey spiritually and care for others in deep relationship. We see all kinds of groups for different circumstances, interests, and life stages.

We envision a host of classes that connect good theology/spirituality to the everyday issues of life, such as:  work, relationships, ethics, family, creation care, sexuality, personal development, investments, social justice, etc.

We see ourselves meeting real needs in Portland with our creativity, people and financial resources with no strings attached, but with the hope of making Jesus known.

We see Mosaic pouring people and financial resources into select long-term international partnerships as an extension of our love for God and humanity.

We see Mosaic as an extension of God’s grace and healing to broken people in the form of support and recovery groups for a wide range of emotional hurts and destructive addictions.

We see ourselves staying long term in the Hollywood District of Portland. We gather in four services each weekend to worship.

We see ministry designed for our city’s children and youth that meaningfully introduces them to Jesus and models an authentic relationship with Him.
