Finding lasting community at Mariners begins with Rooted.
Rooted is a 10-week small group experience designed to connect you to God, the church, and your purpose. Together, in a group of 10-15 people, you’ll explore the Bible, engage in prayer and serve experiences, share stories, and practice rhythms essential to a healthy spiritual life. These spiritual rhythms aren’t new, or something the church recently created, every one of them is found in Acts 2 where the early church began. We will provide you with a facilitator who is trained to come alongside your group to help you get the most out of the experience. Rooted is available 3 times a year, in January, April and August.
Join us for Rooted this fall, beginning the week of August 23!

All of our in person Rooted groups meet at your location’s campus and all of our online groups meet virtually.
Childcare is available for children 0 yrs. – 5th grade at $150 per child for all 10 weeks, $120 per child if registering multiple children.
Once you are registered for Rooted, you will receive a confirmation email with a link to register for childcare.
If you miss Week One, your leader will be in contact with you and you can still join your group. For the best Rooted experience, we recommend not missing more than 2 weeks. If your schedule requires you to miss more than two, feel free to jump in when the next Rooted session starts.
We understand that Rooted is a large time commitment, but we believe it is worth it to invest in the entire process. If you know you are going to miss more than 2 meetings, we ask that you wait until the next session of Rooted. The 10 weeks are a cumulative experience, and so we ask that every participant commit to honor each other with being at every meeting.
Our Rooted team will prayerfully place participants into groups of about 10-15 people. We group by age, marital status, and life stage. We form groups of married couples, singles (not co-ed), women, men, and young adults. These groups ultimately depend upon the demographic of those who registered. 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 that we will be able to accommodate all friend or leader requests.
Yes. Rooted is an adult only curriculum (18 years+). However, there is a Youth curriculum called Rooted Essentials. If you’re interested in Rooted for High School students, contact Mariners Irvine

If registration is closed, please check back for the next Rooted session.
Rooted is the on-ramp to Life Groups. Your Rooted group at the end of the 10 weeks becomes your Life Group, and so we strongly advise that you go through Rooted before joining an open Life Group.
Once you are registered, you will receive a confirmation email with information on how to purchase your Rooted workbook. While Rooted registration is FREE, each participant is responsible for purchasing the $16 workbook.
