Mosaic celebrating 100 years; Local event scheduled for February 18

Beginning in February, Mosaic will celebrate a milestone anniversary of 100 years. Their centennial celebration, titled "A Century of Service, A Legacy of Love," will kick-off with an organization-wide celebration with staff and individuals they serve in 38 locations across 10 states.
Mosaic was formed July 1, 2003 by the consolidation of two Nebraska-born Lutheran ministries dedicated to the needs of people with disabilities. Bethphage began in 1913 in Axtell, NE and Martin Luther Homes began in 1925 in Sterling, NE.
“This is a very exciting time for Mosaic. Our staff, individuals we serve and their families, donors, volunteers, partners and advocates are joining together to reflect on our past and prepare for our future,” said Linda Timmons, Mosaic president and chief executive officer. “We hope that communities where Mosaic is located will join us in celebrating our centennial by attending an event, supporting our mission or by including us in their prayers.”
The public is welcome to join Mosaic’s local Centennial Celebration in Waukon Monday, February 18 at the Farmers & Merchants Savings Bank Community Room from 4-6 p.m. and Tuesday, February 26 at the Decorah Area Chamber of Commerce building, also from 4-6 p.m. A social hour will be held from 4-5 p.m. with a short program beginning at 5 p.m. Food and beverage will be provided.
