Bridge From Resources to Awareness
A parent contacted Mosaics of Mercy for resources for their children. They were going through a difficult time as a family and seeing signs their children needed help with coping tools. They contacted their insurance and multiple counselors in the area but could not find one that had availability or was a fit. The awareness […]
In Loving Memory
At Mosaics, we often talk about the fact that we have front row seats to miracles. We get to see people “rescued through” facing their battles with mental health issues and addictions. We have even been those people which is why we do what we do. But the other side of that is that we […]
This is Where My Path Diverges
So much life has been lived since this photo in 2016 when individual paths merged and Mosaics of Mercy was formed. Our shared bond of hearts shattered by various life events emboldened us to step forward and share our stories in the hope of breathing life into others…and did we ever! God paved the way […]
Book Review: I Love You Rituals
In our Grandmothers Raising Grandchildren support group, we enthusiastically share any new resources we have found to make our role more manageable, joyful, and peaceful. One grandmother often shares about the books she’s read. This one is for parents or (grand)parents. Thank you Marcia Aegerter. ________________ My new favorite book is “I Love You […]
Choosing The Curb
“Who kicks a child to the curb?” I hear the question related to adult children and even spouses often in boundary discussions in my support groups and at Mosaics. “How will I be able to live with myself” follows. It pains me every time I hear these words spoken, as I never believe we as […]
Intentional Reading through Proverbs ~ Encouragement During These Times
There seem to be countless ways to grow ourselves during this season of quarantine. If you are looking for a suggestion on simple daily reading, here is one practice that has had a powerful impact on my heart this month.

Creative Expression for Times Such As These
It goes without saying that these are trying times for each of us. Tension fights to rise to the surface when we move away from the present moment and begin to think about the unknown surrounding our finances, health, commitments and more. Tension can also rise in our present moments as we deal with relationships […]
It’s Always the Small Pieces That Make the Big Picture
Have you ever thought about all the little bumps in the road and how they make you who you are? When I saw the beautiful heart in the picture, it made me reflect on even the little bumps and how they’ve impacted my life. Some of the things that came to mind were our four […]
Fixer in Recovery?
My biggest accomplishment of 2020 to date has been working two 1000-piece puzzles. Yes, I’ve still been working at Mosaics putting together the financial puzzle of sorts, but at home during all hours, I’ve been plugging away at The Best of Colorado and The Joy of Pets. To many that might not seem worthy of accomplishment […]
A Signpost that reads, “Breast Cancer”

In honor of those that have traveled this path, Mosaics of Mercy and Breast Cancer Awareness salutes your unique journey along that path. Whether your story “looks” like a success story as the world defines or not, […]
