A place for students to grow in faith and friendship.
VUMC Youth is a welcoming space for middle and high school students to grow in faith, build friendships, and discover their purpose in Christ. Whether a student is new to church or has grown up in it, this is a place to be real, be known, and be encouraged.
What students can expect
We want youth to find a place where faith feels real, friendships matter, and growing in Christ is something they can do together.
Growing Deep. Living Strong.
Rooted is the current expression of VUMC Youth. It is a place where students can grow in faith, build friendships, and discover what it means to follow Jesus in everyday life.
Rooted Youth Ministry
Growing Deep. Living Strong.
Rooted Youth Ministry is a place where middle and high school students come together to grow in faith, build friendships, and discover their purpose in Christ.
We meet every Sunday at 4:00 PM for a time of worship, Bible teaching, games, and small group discussion in a fun and welcoming environment.
Whether you’re new to church or have grown up in it, Rooted is a place where you can be real, be known, and be encouraged.
Why this matters
The teenage years are full of change, questions, identity, pressure, and growth. We want students to know they do not have to navigate those years alone.
