Frequently Asked Questions:
Is Rooted for ‘new Christians’ or ‘seasoned Christians’?
Both. Rooted is a curriculum designed for all people. It will help the new Christian learn what it means to follow God and it will challenge the seasoned Christian to deepen their walk with God.
Can I sign up with friends?
You can sign up with friends. Please indicate this on your registration form. We do encourage family members to choose separate groups.
What is the attendance requirement?
Rooted participants are expected to attend both outside experiences and miss no more than 2 weeks of the normal group time.
What are the 2 outside experiences?
All Rooted groups will do a Prayer Experience and a Serve Experience -- each take about 3 hours. While we realize there may be some extenuating circumstances, we consider these “can’t miss” experiences through the Rooted journey. Group leaders will lead groups to find dates and times that the entire group agrees upon for the Prayer and Serve Experiences.
Is childcare available?
One advantage of having our Rooted groups at Third City is that we can offer excellent care for children of Rooted participants at select times. Childcare is available for the 11 weeks of normal group time. Childcare is not available for the 2 outside experiences (prayer & serve). When registering, please make sure childcare is offered during the selected time. Childcare costs $50.00 per child, which is less than $5.00 per child for the 11 weeks.
Can I have my infant with me during Rooted?
No. It’s no surprise that we love kids! We also know how important it is for adults to have focused time together to grow. With this in mind, please plan accordingly for any and all childcare needs. For mother’s with infants, please determine if this is the best season for you to take Rooted.
What is the cost of Rooted?
Registration cost is $50/person, which includes materials and a meal at the Celebration. This is due prior to the Rooted Launch each session. No refunds after session 3. If money is an issue, we have scholarships available.
**Please note that If you receive a scholarship and then dropout, you will not be eligible for future scholarships.
