ASK A QUESTION

PARENTS/CAREGIVERS/GUARDIANS: Want an inside look at what your son or daughter is doing? Stick around sometime and see for yourself. Also...we occasionally need drivers, chaperones and adults to accompany our outings. Please contact Angie to see what's involved. Even volunteering once a year would be a blessing!

Regular Weekly Gatherings

We meet up twice during the week and youth may join in any time (bring a friend!). Please click on the ROOTS Event Calendar button below because we occasionally change things up.

Sunday Mornings at 11:00 AM - Come for a "Deep Dive" into the sermon: discuss how it may apply to our lives today. Also come for fun games and a snack.
Wednesday Evenings at 6:30PM - Regular meeting of our Youth Group to discuss the Bible and enjoy games, crafts and snacks.

Always check the ROOTS calendar for any schedule or time change - or scan the QR code (if you're not at your computer) for a direct path to the calendar.

FALL SEASON (2023)

Whether you are new or just haven't been able to come for a while, our Fall kickoff is a great time to get started with all new classes and series starting up. Read below for opportunities to serve our local community and get service hours for school!

Wednesday night youth group
Fun lesson, games, activities, snacks, etc...
Every Wednesday night at the church (unless otherwise specified)

We will be studying Apologetics this fall. We will not only learn about our Faith and try to figure out what we personally believe, but we will learn how to defend our faith out in the world around us. We will be having separate small groups for middle and high school this year.

Service Projects

Our Youth Group participates in many local, community service projects. We volunteer with local groups, including the Feed-A-Family Program in November, Haven Ministries, Kent Island Beach Clean Ups, etc.

Beach Cleanups

The Kent Island Beach Cleanups group holds local beach and area cleanups every year all around our community. This is a great way to help clean up and protect our environment and to earn service hours for school!! Adults are welcome and encouraged to attend too! All youth participants must have a signed Participation Form to join us. SIGNUP HERE!**

Appalachia Service Project

June 2023 trip - We partnered with the Appalachia Service Project, which brings together volunteers from around the country to rural Central Appalachia to repair homes for low-income families. Read more. Here are pictures from our June 2023 trip! >>>
