What is ROOTED?
ROOTED is not a local youth group or a summer camp. It is a dedicated discipleship and leadership journey for young followers of Jesus. We walk WITH young people, not just teach them, building a foundation that lasts long after the weekend ends.
In partnership with YWAM leaders, local churches, and parents, we provide a safe, healthy, and Spirit-led environment. Our heart is to see a generation grounded in biblical foundations, walking in the power of the Holy Spirit and confident in their identity in Christ.
Our DNA
Rooted in Jesus & Scripture
Everything we do is built upon the authority of the Word of God and the person of Jesus Christ.
Intergenerational Discipleship
We believe in the wisdom of shared life, where older and younger generations learn and lead together.
Safe & Healthy Environments
A non-negotiable commitment to the emotional, spiritual, and physical safety of every young person.
Spirit-led, Not Performance-led
We create space for the Holy Spirit to move, focusing on authentic growth rather than outward show.
Gospel Lived Outdoors
Discipleship that translates into everyday life, where faith is active, relational, and real.
The Annual Journey
ROOTED is an annual commitment to growth. We meet for bi-monthly overnight weekends that are relational, fun, and deeply formative.
Our weekends involve intentional teaching, worship, prayer, and small group fellowship. We prioritise community and long-term community over isolated events, walking together through a journey of discovery and empowerment.
