On Sundays...

Join us Sundays at 9:30am at the SOUTH YMCA (7120 S. Cooper St., Arlington TX, 76001) for our weekly community gathering. We use music, words, painting and other arts to communicate our love for God and the value we have as people who can bring hope and love to our city and world.

Our kids meet together for Kidmo. They learn how to love God and other people in ways that are meaningful to them, taking home reminders that will help them love people and serve God throughout the week with their parents.

Mid-week...

Through the week Life Groups or small groups meet in homes to share a meal, pray for each other, serve people and learn more about how to live a life of love for God and other. Find a list of those groups here.

 

What to Expect at the Sunday Gathering @ the Y

Upon pulling into the parking lot of the South Arlington YMCA we hope that our signage will point you in the right direction.  There will be new friends waiting to meet you to determine how to make your morning at the Y the best it can.  If you have children you can immediately check them into their age appropriate classes (or if you prefer you can bring them into the gym for our Gathering). All our Mosaic Kid's volunteers have federal background checks done and are continually being trained to provide your child with an awesome experience to learn about God in his/her own 'language.'  After checking your kids into our Mosaic kids area, feel free to stop by the Connection table to learn a little more about Mosaic before you enter the gym.  Upon entering the gym you will find some fresh fruit and bagels as well as coffee, juice and bottled water.  Grab something to eat and/or drink on us!  A Connection team leader will give you a Sunday Guide that will give you a chance to learn more about the upcoming opportunities of Mosaic and/or allow you a chance to communicate with us if you have a need. 

When you walk into the Gathering on Sunday morning we want you to feel welcomed and at ease. In the lobby you will find coffee, tea & OJ as well as a small snack for you to enjoy while you get to know us better. You will also be greeted and given a guide that lists the month’s news and activities. In addition, if you have kids the lobby is the place to register them for Mosaic Kids.

Once you make your way into the theater (gym), grab a seat,  as the the band plays.   You may find yourself asking the question many of us asked on our first visit, “Why are they doing that?” We believe the Scriptures teach us to worship God by singing, standing, bowing, kneeling, clapping, raising hands, reading Scripture, dancing, teaching, praying and eating and drinking together. Most Sundays you will notice we sing about two songs followed by a time of teaching in the scriptures.  After that we will go back to a time of singing, thanking God for speaking to us.  We also offer a time of communion during our last set of songs.  If you feel the need to give financially you can do so by putting it in the offering box or talking to the person at the computer in the hall after the gathering. We conclude with a time of prayer and a 'sending out' to make a difference in the world. At the conclusion of our Gathering there are a few people who will be available to speak to you in private about any prayer needs you may have.
