Lead by Pastor Matt Atkins, Mosaic Church is located in Bellingham, WA. Our heart is to try and re-orient our lives around the life and teaching of Jesus by living five rhythms. We have used the acrostic B.L.E.S.S. to describe these rhythms. They are Beautify, Listen, Eat, Study & Send. By the way, it is not that we haven’t been trying to live for Jesus in the past, we have just felt a renewed call to do this in a particular way.
