About

Six years ago, our Women's Ministry took inspiration from Jeremiah 17:8 and decided to build a conference that helps women grow in their faith and build a deeper trust in God. Like the passage says, those who trust in God can withstand the harshest conditions and continue to thrive. At Deeply Rooted, we strive to grow a community of trust, a learning environment, a time of authentic worship and a sense of the greatness of God. 

"He will be like a tree planted by water: it sends its roots out toward a stream, it doesn't fear when heat comes, and its foliage remains green. It will not worry in a year of drought or cease producing fruit." - Jeremiah 17:8
