Great Treasure Women's Retreat


Ladies, there’s still room for you at our Great Treasure Women’s Retreat, October 9 through 11 at Burnt Fork Ranch! We have both overnight and day spots available, and we’d love to fill those remaining spaces. If you’ve been thinking about joining us, there’s still time. Stop by the Welcome Desk in the entry after service today to get registered or ask any questions.

Thank you for supporting the Women's Retreat Bake Sale and Fundraiser!  We still have a few mums available out front today if you'd like to pick one up!

Church Directory Update

It’s time for our annual church directory update. If you’d like to be included in the directory, or if any of your information has changed click the link below to update your information. 

You can also fill out a paper copy at the desk in the entry and drop it in the basket there when you’re finished. If your information hasn’t changed, there’s nothing you need to do when you receive the reminders.

Get Involved

There's a lot happening at Roots as we head into fall, and we'd really encourage you to find a place to be part of it. Take a look at the Get Involved page and see where the Lord might be leading you to get connected.

Mountaintop Middle School Retreat

Registration is open for our MS Fall Retreat happening October 23-25, 2026 at Big Sky Bible Camp! This is open to any 6th-8th grader in the Valley (not just Roots youth). The cost is $175 which covers food, lodging and transportation. (Scholarships are available) The registration deadline is Sunday, October 4th, click the link below to sign up.

We are also looking for parents to help chaperone the retreat. If you are interested in chaperoning, click on the "Chaperone Squad" application link below.

For any Roots HS youth interested in serving at the retreat, please complete an application form below. Matt will be in touch.

Youth Group - New Time

Youth Group is also back this week, with new hours this fall, meeting from 6:30 to 8:30pm each Wednesday. Students who have moved up into Youth Group can begin attending this week, so parents, be sure to make note of the new time.

Branches Home Groups

Home Groups are a chance to take what we're learning on Sundays and continue the conversation during the week. You'll spend time in God's Word with others and build relationships that go beyond Sunday mornings. If you've been wanting to get more connected at Roots, we'd really encourage you to consider joining a Home Group this fall.
Home Groups are launching the week of September 6. Check out the sign ups available on Sundays and join a Home Group in your area! You can also click below to be connected to a Home Group.

Seedlings Volunteers Needed! 

One of the greatest investments we can make as a church is in the lives of our children.

As we prepare for the fall, we have a real need for more Seedlings volunteers - not just on Sunday mornings, but also throughout the week, including Wednesday evening. Every week, children are hearing God's Word because faithful men and women choose to serve.

If the Lord has been stirring your heart to get involved, this may be the opportunity you've been waiting for. We'd love to talk with you about serving in this way.

If you'd like to learn more, talk to Keziah. You can also click the link below or pick up a Seedlings application at the Connect board, fill it out and turn it in to Keziah or to the church office.

Parking Lot - help needed

You've probably noticed our recent parking lot improvements as well as volunteers helping direct parking before each service. We kindly ask that you follow their directions as they help create room for guests and visitors.

We're also looking for a few more people to help with parking. If you're interested, stop by Michelle's desk in the entry after service.

Join us for Pre Service Prayer 

Each Sunday morning at 8am, a group gathers to pray before first service. It's a time to pray for our church, our leadership, and the morning ahead. Everyone is welcome to join in, so if you'd like to come early and spend some time in prayer with others, we'd love to have you.

Missions Prayer

Just a reminder that we gather for Missions Prayer on the 1st and 3rd Thursday of each month at 7pm. This is a special time for us to come together and pray for our missionaries in Kosovo and Korea, and for the safe house in Nepal. We’d love for you to join us
as we lift them up, encourage one another, and trust God for His work around the world.
