Announcements

Have you ever thought about going on a short-term missions trip? We're planning a trip to Korea during the first two weeks of April, (specific dates TBD) and there may be an opportunity for you to be part of it! If you're interested in learning more about the trip, what we'll be doing, or what it might look like to participate, we'll be having an information meeting on Sunday, November 8, immediately after second service.

You don't have to make any commitments just yet. This is simply an opportunity to hear more, ask questions, and prayerfully consider whether the Lord might be leading you to go.

You're invited to The Best Birthday Party Ever! Join us at Roots for Gingerbread Bash, a fun-filled Christmas celebration for the whole family!
We'll have games, laughter, and plenty of Christmas fun as families work together to build their very own gingerbread nativities. Along the way, we'll discover what makes Christmas the greatest birthday celebration of all as we remember the birth of Jesus!
This is a wonderful opportunity to make Christmas memories together, so invite your friends and bring the whole family!
This is a FREE event! We simply ask that you register in advance so we can have everything ready for your family.
We can't wait to celebrate with you!

Men, if you've been looking for an opportunity to spend time in God's Word and connect with other men here at Roots, our Tuesday morning men's Bible study meets at 6am and is now studying the book of James.

James is such a practical book, challenging us to live out our faith in everyday life. Whether you've attended before or are thinking about joining for the first time, this is a great opportunity to get involved.

You can find more information about this study, along with our other men's and women's Bible studies, on the Ministries or Get Involved pages of our app or website.

As Thanksgiving approaches, we have an opportunity to bless families in our church and community by providing them with everything they need to enjoy a Thanksgiving meal together. Signups for our Thanksgiving Meal Boxes open today! If your family could use a little extra help this Thanksgiving, or if you know someone who would be blessed by receiving a meal box, we invite you to sign up through our app or website.

Signups will remain open through Monday, November 16, and meal boxes must be picked up on Sunday, November 22, from 1 to 1:30pm. We hope you'll help us spread the word so these meals can be a blessing to those who need them this Thanksgiving. Click the link below to sign up for a meal box.

It's that time of year again! Operation Christmas Child shoeboxes are available in the entry, along with the labels you'll need for your boxes.

This is a wonderful opportunity to bless a child somewhere in the world with a gift-filled shoebox and help share the love of Jesus with them. If you'd like to participate, stop by the table in the entry and pick up a shoebox and label. Completed shoeboxes need to be returned to Roots by Sunday, November 22.

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.

There’s something special about having a part in helping children know and love the Lord. In Seedlings, we have the opportunity to come alongside parents as they teach their children God’s Word and encourage them to grow in their faith.

We’re looking for more people to join us in serving our kids on Sunday mornings. Whether you enjoy teaching or would rather serve alongside someone else in the classroom, there are different ways to be involved. Lessons and materials are provided, and we’ll help you get started.

If you’d like to invest in the next generation at Roots, we invite you to take that first step and learn more about serving in Seedlings.
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.

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.

Our church office is open Monday through Thursday from 9am to 4pm. Messages received outside of office hours will be responded to during the next regular office day. For questions or assistance, please contact the church office at 406-642-9994 or contact@rootsfellowship.com. 

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.

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.
