MOSAIC Arts Camp by Macy Sirmans

This magnificent brick building where we meet for worship,
Ben Brook’s kitchen of mouth-watering smells,
The playground out back – filled with giggles and play,
A towering steeple, withstanding, it prevails.

Murals and posters adorning kids’ church walls,
The Youth Sunday School room – wall painted blue,
Our gym and fellowship hall for community fun,
Mary Turner’s fabulous high-heeled shoes.

The garden, the rainbow, the stable, the cross,
All creatures – great and small,
Inspired, created, molded, and made,
By God – the artist of us all.

Just as he inspired the beauty all around,
Four years ago, he ignited a start,
For the opportunity to teach his majesty to children,
Through various mediums of the arts.

Propelled by his grace and abounding miracles,
Aspects of his unique plan,
Members of First Baptist and Habersham County,
Came together, and MOSAIC Arts Camp began!

MOSAIC has been a blessing for the Christian community,
Sweet memories our hearts carry in tow,
Celebrating four years of MOSAIC in only a month,
Get ready – it’s time for the show!

Premised around the heritage of Christian believers,
Works of art spreading God’s loving beams,
We study generations of the past while we create the present,
“Folk Art” is this summer camp’s theme.

As in past years, we offer artistic options,
For MOSAIC masters and budding Monet’s,
The week of MOSAIC will expand the young mind,
As scholars walk closer to God each camp day.

Pottery, singing, creative writing,
Dance, drama, guitar,
Photography, scrapbooking, sculpting and quilting,
MOSAIC’s curriculum certainly breeches far!

Though we boast valued instructors with knowledge abounding,
Understanding art of all ranges and sorts,
We still solicit the assistance of fellow believers,
We need your gifts, your trust, your support.

Enroll your passionate artist in this blessed event,
Donate to provide for a camper in need,
Commit your time as a MOSAIC mentor or helper,
FBC – we have young spirits to feed!

If you are, or have been, a MOSAIC instructor,
If you’ve decided just now to lend a helping hand,
If you’re a past, present, or future camper,
Your witness is the cause for which you stand!
