Rooted Children’s Ministry

The mission of ROOTED Children’s Ministry is to equip parents and encourage kids to come to know Jesus, grow in their faith, and experience milestone moments as a family.

So then, just as you received Christ Jesus as Lord, continue to live in him, rooted and built up in him, strengthened in the faith as you were taught, and overflowing with thankfulness. Colossians 2:6-7

Rooted in Jesus & His Word

It’s our prayer that your children will become ROOTED in Jesus Christ and His Word. We desire to partner with you in order to see your children come to know Jesus and grow deeper in their relationship with Him and the Bible.

Grounded in Love

Love is the foundation of our ministry. We believe that all children need and desire genuine love. Our screened and trained volunteers and staff strive to model the love of Jesus Christ and show that we care for them.

Growth

The ultimate goal of our children’s ministry is to see each student become a ROOTED disciple of Jesus Christ, and prepare them for future growth as a young person.
