Upon returning for the day I checked my inbox to find a shocking email. A good friend from Mosaic Hampton Roads, Conrad Porter, died Saturday morning apparently from a massive heart attack. He just turned 50 this year. He leaves behind his wife Esther, son Remy and daughter Mia. Conrad was an elder of the church and a wonderful Christian man. No news could have shocked us more. If you have a moment, please remember the Porter family.
This was June 29, 2008 at the commissioning ceremony Mosaic had for us on our last Sunday. An elder of the church prayed over each one of us. Conrad prayed over Jenna.
To our Mosaic family - We know there's nothing we can do from such a great distance but prayer is everything! If there is anything we could do to help from here, please let us know. We miss each and every one of you.

May the grace of our Lord comfort you, your friends and their families.
"We live by faith, not by sight. We are confident, I say, and would prefer to be away from the body and at home with the Lord. So we make it our goal to please him, whether we are at home in the body or away from it." 2 Corinthians 5:7-9
When we lose a loved one in Christ, we grieve our loss, but need to remember to remember to rejoice at their gain.
"For to me, to live is Christ and to die is gain." Philippians 1:21
We'll pray for God's comfort for you.
- Don
