“As ye have therefore received Christ Jesus the Lord, so walk ye in him:
rooted and built up in him, and stablished in the faith, as ye have been

taught, abounding therein with thanksgiving.”

Colossians 2: 6 – 7

Rooted is a group of college and career aged young adults with a
primary focus on furthering their personal walk with God. This group
encourages and fosters Christ-centered friendships among the future
leaders of the church. This season of life can be chaotic and full of
change, but we strive to create a solid community of friends that pushes
one another to be more like Christ. Our vision for this ministry is to have
young adults that are rooted and grounded in their faith and are therefore
better able to impact the world around them, and specifically the
kingdom of God, for the cause of Christ.

Sunday Mornings:
Rooted has a class that meets every Sunday morning. This time is
used to connect with other believers, and most importantly to connect
with God. Through Biblical teaching we strive to help young adults
grow, equip them with the truth, and encourage them to live the life God
intended them to in a way that is evident to the world around them.

Small Group Bible Study:
Once a month our Rooted ministry meets outside the church
building for Bible Study. This meeting typically takes place in a group
member’s home. We find that this allows for more open and honest
conversation among believers. Sometimes in the church it can be hard to
open up about your struggles or questions you may have. The goal of
this Bible study is to provide a space to share that vulnerability and offer
Biblical answers and advice out of Christ-like love for one another. We
also use this time to fellowship and have a meal with one another. We
try to have fun, but most importantly to minister to one another.

Outreach:
In addition to our small group, we also have an annual retreat each
year. This weekend away is always a great time for all our Rooted
members. During the retreat, we have several devotions centered around
living an authentic life for Christ. We attempt to use this time away to be
real with one another and the things that often hinder us from serving
God fully. We also have some fun activities throughout the weekend as
well. From hockey to Sevier Air, we have done it all. The Rooted retreat
is such a wonderful time to grow closer to God, and to strengthen our
friendships with one another.

We are a diverse group of young adults actively pursuing the life
God designed for us. No matter what stage of life you are in, there is a
place for you here!
