Roots 2009


An Inverness-based inter-denominational youth ministry
 

Roots

 

2009



Check the message list at the foot of this page for most recent update announcements.


Roots is a monthly inter-denominational youth (S1 - S6) event which meets in:
 
Inshes Church, Inverness from 7.00 until 9.00pm
on
the last Friday of each school-term month.


Young people (S1-6) from throughout the Highlands and across the churches and denominations are made very welcome and it’s an excellent opportunity for them to socialise and have fun in a safe environment.

During each evening there will be games and snacks; a Pot Shot (a response to one of their questions) and a time of praise led by the roots band.
The focus of each evening is a 20 min talk from God’s Word. This term is entitled MASTERSMIND and uses the famous game show as a backdrop for looking at 5 ‘ultimate questions’.

With our first distinctive being the focus on God’s Word our other distinctive is our firm belief in the Church of Jesus Christ. We are not seeking to set up a parallel ‘youth’ church or negatively impact any local church work. Instead we see roots as supporting your work: encouraging young Christians to serve in their own Church context and challenging non-Christians to turn to Christ and become part of His Bride, the Church.
