A Little About Bailee's Walk With Jesus:
I grew up going to church every Sunday and was blessed to learn about God from a young age. As I got older, especially during my parents’ divorce, we attended church less and less. About three years ago, I realized I wanted my faith to be more than just something I inherited from my parents. I chose to pursue my own personal relationship with Jesus, fully surrender my life to Him, and continually grow in my walk with the Lord. Since then, my faith has continued to grow stronger every day.

What Bailee Loves About ROOTS
I love the strong sense of community that Roots provides for teenagers. It creates a place where teens can feel encouraged, supported, and surrounded by people who point them toward Christ. Having a Christ-centered community like Roots, helps build friendships rooted in faith, provides guidance during difficult seasons, and reminds teens that they are never alone in their walk with God.
