Women's Ministry

Let your roots grow down into Him, and let your lives be built on Him.
Then your faith will grow strong in the Truth you were taught, and you will overflow with thankfulness. - Colossians 2:7

VISION

Rooted Women is a place where women are seen, loved, and valued, while growing together in the Love of Jesus and in the Truth of His Word.

MISSION

Our mission is to come alongside to encourage, disciple, equip, and connect women in all stages of life to be deeply rooted and grounded in the love of Jesus and the Word of God so they in turn can be a light to their families and those around them, impacting lives for future generations.

We are organizing a group of women to go to the Thrive Women's Conference - Undone at the Rochester Mayo Civic Center. It is an overnight event from Friday, October 9th through Saturday, October 10th.

Matthew 27:51-52 NIV, "At that moment the curtain of the temple was torn in two from top to bottom. The earth shook, the rocks split and the tombs broke open. The bodies of many holy people who had died were raised to life."
In that moment that Jesus hung His head in death, everything was upended and UNDONE. What was once dead now came to life! The religious establishment was completely undone, and sacrifice was no longer needed. Throughout our lives, we each have moments/seasons that our lives are UNDONE -- the veil is torn in a new way and we see Jesus in a new and life-changing way. This is our hope for Thrive this year, that women will be UNDONE before Jesus!
