A Year of Growth and Service
Tuscarora
As we reflect on the inaugural year of the Rooted Gap Year program at Tuscarora, our hearts are filled with gratitude and joy. This transformative journey has profoundly impacted the lives of its first class, and we're excited to share some of their experiences with you.
Rooted is a nine-month discipleship adventure designed to help young adults deepen their faith, engage in meaningful service, and discover their identity as disciples of Jesus Christ. The program encompasses four core components: Learn, Serve, Grow, and Belong. Participants engage in intensive Bible study, serve in various capacities at Tuscarora and beyond, embark on mission trips, and live together in a Christ-centered community.
The true essence of Rooted is best captured through the voices of its participants. Here are some heartfelt reflections from members of our first class:
Looking Ahead: Join the Rooted Family
As we celebrate the successes of this past year, we are also looking forward to welcoming a new group of young adults into the Rooted family. If you or someone you know is between the ages of 18-25 and seeking a transformative experience to grow deeper in faith, serve others, and build lasting community, we encourage you to consider applying for the upcoming year.
Applications are now open. For more information and to apply, please visit our website.
We also invite our broader Tuscarora community to support this ministry by spreading the word, praying for our students and staff, and considering financial contributions to help sustain and grow the program. Your support plays a crucial role in shaping the next generation of disciples.
A Heartfelt Thank You
To our donors, supporters, and the entire Tuscarora community: your prayers, generosity, and encouragement have been instrumental in launching and sustaining the Rooted program. Together, we are witnessing God's transformative work in the lives of these young adults, and we eagerly anticipate all that He has in store for the future.
May we continue to be rooted and built up in Him, strengthened in the faith, and overflowing with thankfulness.
