Houston Mosaic's Top Ten List proposal....

I'm still working on the wordsmithing but feel free to comment and add you notes.....

10. Conteplation - We need to seek our place of rest and rejuvenation in our hectic whirlwind lives we lead. This place is different for each one of us and we value this practice.

9. Art - We believe that Art touches out souls and if we are to gather as a community to worship we need the arts to be a light post along the path. Art open us to ideas and concepts that without which are unobtainable. Art is welcome in the community of Mosaic.

8. Music - If the really smart physicist are right, and they seem to make sense, there exist a relationship between the vibrations of the universe and the very existence of us. We choose to believe these vibrations can be interpreted as music and if we are to connect with our world and the creator of that world we need to express it through music. Besides David used music to comfort the ailments of King Saul.

7. Communion - We strive to be in communion with each other and as worship and celebration of the unique relationship we are involved in with the Creator through His Son’s sacrifice.
6. Hope - We gather and do together because we have hope. Hope is a thing that few people can grasp and even fewer understand fully. We live in the hope that God is who He says He is and we are not Him!

5. Love - What would happen if we truly loved others simply because. What if we were intentional in our communication, both verbal and non-verbal, in such a manner that others stopped us on the street to ask us what was different about us?

4. Faith - We desire to show other what we believe though our actions words and deeds. This is not an exercise but a lifestyle.

3. Houston - We feel this is our city and our place where we needed

2. Family - All of the people that we consider to be family in our lives. You might want to be forewarned we kinda adopt a Hispanic/Latino approach to family.... Once your in it is almost impossible to get out. (Maybe we got that from the Godfather movies :)

1. Relationships between each other and our Creator
