Graduate Community & Care
What is the Graduate Care Program?
At The Mosaic Center, our mission is to educate, elevate, and activate women in Angelina County. Our Graduate Care program is a vital part of this mission, providing ongoing support to women who have completed our Job & Life Skills Program. Through this program, Mosaic Center Graduates:
- Stay connected to a community of encouragement and opportunity.
- Receive invitations to annual and exclusive graduate events.
- Access to a private online community and notifications about job opportunities.
- Are prayed for regularly, and prayer requests are always welcome!
Over 80% of our trackable graduates are employed or have enrolled in higher education!

Testimonials
“I used and sold drugs and ran from the law until I was 20. One night I cried out to God, telling Him I was sick of my life and needed Him to take control — the very next day I was arrested and later came to The Mosaic Center through a recommendation from drug court. During my time here, I became pregnant, and we were so broke I didn’t even know how I would get to class, but God always made a way and the women here never gave up on me. My life is living proof of what the Holy Spirit wants to do through the body of Christ for other women.”
Mosaic Center Graduate in 2011
"When I came to The Mosaic Center, I wanted to learn computer skills, build a good résumé, and improve my interview skills so I could find a job and move out of the shelter. Through the classes, I gained confidence in reading, writing, and relationships, and Bible Study taught me the importance of seeking God and prayer. By graduation, I felt ready for interviews and proud of my professional résumé. Soon after, I got a job, saved money, and was able to move into my own apartment — The Mosaic Center gave me the confidence and skills to reach my goals".
The Mosaic Center Graduate in 2021
“I first came to The Mosaic Center wanting to volunteer, but God showed me I needed to be a student here. I’ve found clarity, togetherness with God’s people, and a deeper understanding of the Bible and how to share it with others without being pushy. The teachers pour into me so I can pour into others. This place is the Bible in action — the hem of His garment for me — and I thank God every time I walk through the doors."

Family Fun Day is one of our favorite annual traditions!
Each year, graduates, staff, and volunteers—from current participants to those from years past—gather at Ellen Trout Park to celebrate our Mosaic community. Together we share fellowship, laughter, and God’s love. With the support of amazing community partners, families enjoy games, crafts, face painting, lunch, and special guests—last year we welcomed Allie Pierce with Princesses in the Pines and ADAC. Graduates also benefit from giveaways, opportunities to connect with area agencies, and information on local opportunities. Alumni love riding the Zoo Railroad, exploring the zoo after the gathering, and the fun fellowship!
More than just a fun event, Family Fun Day reflects the heart of our Graduate Care Program—staying connected as one body, walking alongside our graduates, and keeping them lifted in prayer.
✨ Save the Date: This year’s Family Fun Day will be Friday, May 29, 2026! ✨
