October 10, 2026   Rev. Dr. Leslie Ann Whited, CEO at MOSAIC celebrates 29 years as CEO of MOSAIC
                              Her favorite part of ministry is "the collective of diverse people serving diverse people at MOSAIC -
                              a unique constellation of strengths."
                              Working, living, playing, together, we bring to life cultural sayings from my Scot-Irish
                              background: 'Many hands make light work...  Put it on your shoulder and say it is not
                              a burden...  We live in joy of heart - a priceless treasure especially in difficult times.  When
                              we shower others with blessing we cannot help but shower ourselves with blessings too.'
                              MOSAIC is a site in which people are lifted by joy, genuine care and blessing!"
