Faith that can survive senior year — and everything after it.

The next six years matter. Middle school and high school is where most students decide what they really believe. We don't want them to figure that out alone.

ALL CAMPUS EVENTS

Winter Camp & Summer Camp, every year.

Two camps a year, built to be the highlight of a student's whole calendar.

Every FEBRUARY

Winter Camp

Forget resolutions. Snow, close friends, and a few days that reset everything — Winter Camp is where your student comes face to face with who God's calling them to become.

Every AUGUST

Summer Camp

72 hours that can shape the next ten years. Cabins, late nights, and worship that leads straight to Jesus — your student comes home walking closer with Him than when they left.

Cost is never the reason a student misses camp. Financial assistance is available for both Winter and Summer Camp — just ask your campus's Roots leader.

Meet your campus Roots Director.


Leaders who show up every week, remember their name, and actually want to be there.

still have questions?

Frequently asked by parents.

If you're wondering it, another parents asked us the exact same thing last Sunday.

We've found preteens are ready for real community — and real questions about faith — a little earlier than people expect. 5th graders join the same group as everyone else, built with a range of ages in mind from day one.

In addition. Roots meets weekly on weeknights (see times above), so students still join their family at one of our Sunday services too.

Yes — every leader and volunteer passes a national background check before ever being with students, same as our Kidzone team.

Camp costs vary by year and are shared with families well ahead of time. Financial assistance (scholarships) is always available — no student misses Winter or Summer Camp because of cost. Just talk to your campus's Roots leader.

Absolutely! Roots night are a great low-pressure way for students to bring a friend who's never been to church before.
