What if I cannot make all eleven weeks?

Rooted is a large time commitment, but we believe it will be worthwhile for you to invest in the entire process. If you know you are going to miss more than two meetings, we ask you wait until the next session of Rooted. The 11 weeks are a cumulative experience, so we ask every participant to honor each other by attending every meeting. We understand emergencies come up, and you may need to cancel your Rooted registration. You can cancel your registration and receive a full refund up until two weeks after Rooted launches. No refunds will be given after this time.

How will my Rooted group be chosen?

Our Rooted team will prayerfully place participants into groups of about 10-14 people. We group by age, marital status, and life stage. We form groups of married couples, singles, women, men, and young adults. These groups ultimately depend upon the demographic of those who register. A substantial amount of prayer and thoughtfulness goes into creating groups which we think will provide the best experience for all people who attend. While we do our best to honor requests when possible, we cannot guarantee we will be able to accommodate all friend or leader requests.

What is the difference between Rooted and Community Groups?

Rooted is the on-ramp to Community Groups. Your Rooted group at the end of the 11 weeks becomes your Community Group, and we strongly advise that you go through Rooted before joining an open Community Group.

What if I can’t afford the participation fee?

We believe that Rooted is a life-changing experience and we want everyone to participate! We understand that the Rooted registration fee may be a burden for some and we are happy to support you if that is your current situation. Please click here to fill out the Rooted Scholarship Application.

Can I facilitate a Rooted group?

Rooted Facilitators get a front-row seat to something remarkable – God transforming lives. Rooted leaders must have graduated from Rooted and agree to our leadership covenant. Please email Rooted@Centralaz.com if you are interested in facilitating.
