Davis Mosaics Mid Autumn Festival on September 22, 2018
As we walk into the Fall season, Mosaics will gather to celebrate Mid Autumn Festival by making several delicious home-made Asian cultural dishes through cooking classes led by several cooking experts, Alex Jang, Ting Dong and Grace Moon.
We invited our beloved Alex Jang, specially to be our main chéf of Mosaics Mid Autumn Festival Cooking Events and hope you will be enjoying her elegant cooking style. So, please RSVP for her station ASAP. Thank you!
Here is the summary of Mosaics Cooking Events:
1. Alex Jang’s Cooking Station:
“Summer’s End Warm Chicken Salad” just like the weather outside, it’s not too hot and not too cold. We will be making and enjoying fresh bright flavors that will remind you of summer but will hopefully be savory enough of a memory to keep you warm as we transition into Fall.
There will be also vegan version of this with tofu and eggplants.
2. Ting Dong’s Cooking Station:
Ting will set up dumpling station to make various dumplings with beef, pork, shrimps and vegetables including with vegan version.

We are each here to dream big and lead a very inspired life, it’s what we’re called to do.
Join NEO Escape Rooms on the evening of Saturday, September 22nd and hear the story of how Co-Founders Acme and Gabriel entered the Calling All Dreamers business contest and pursued their dream of launching an escape room entertainment center in downtown Sacramento.
Learn how to walk an inspired path in your own life and how to have more excitement, focus, and faith in your dreams!

Davis Mosaics is a New Worshiping Community sponsored by Davis Community Church. Led by Rev. Dr. Stephen Moon and supported by the hospitality gifts of Grace Moon, Davis Mosaics mission is to share God’s love and grace with Millennials through free language classes, cooking, music, outdoor activities, spirituality-developing events, fellowship, so that they experience God’s love and grace.
Over the past 3 years of Davis Mosaics, 600+ people have come through the DCC campus and checked us out. Of those about 120 people are active with Davis Mosaics. Davis Mosaics is true evangelism reaching out to a generation that is primarily unchurched. Though not a part of the mission, 5 people from Davis Mosaics have become members of Davis Community Church and another 5~10 people now also worship with DCC.
Davis Mosaics creates a place of belonging for all… Christian and non-Christian alike. Mosaics is grounded in the spiritual practice of hospitality, enabling us to more fully meet, live with and know our neighbors. Since the original word for hospitality, “philoxenia,” literally means the ‘love of strangers,’ Mosaics is called to create a community of welcome for all, a new expression of Christianity that responds to our changing culture in dynamic ways.
Davis Mosaics compliments the mix of programs at Davis Community Church and reaches people not otherwise reached by DCC. By feeling welcome at Davis Mosaics, Millennials in the area are exposed to additional programs and possibilities available at Davis Community Church. They consistently invite their friends to join them at Davis Mosaics.
Davis Mosaics exists to build authentic “koinonia” (Acts 2:42-47) while pursuing the Great Commandment (Matt. 22:36-40) and the Great Commission of Jesus (Matt. 28:16-20 & 2 Cor. 10:15b), for the Mosaic Generation in Davis and its surrounds.
Join us for contemporary inter-faith/intercultural Mosaics fellowship every Saturday afternoon from 3 pm to 8:30 pm at the 2nd floor of the Phoenix Hall. Davis Mosaics numbers grow as we have 3~9 newcomers weekly. Currently over 350 people are registered as participants with weekly participation averages 38 people with 60 – 75 people attending special events.
Davis Mosaics is grateful for ALL that Davis Community Church gives to Davis Mosaics: facilities, staff support, pastoral support, financial resources, all with lots of prayer and encouragement
