Rooted & Ready is a mission to build a resilient, self-sufficient community grounded in God’s Word, strengthened by practical skills, and marked by loving service. The early church “had all things in common” and “distributed to each as any had need” (Acts 2:44–45). In that same spirit, we desire to quietly prepare to care for one another—not out of fear, but as faithful stewards of God’s provision.

We believe right now is a great time to build a team. Through small, intentional steps, we’re forming a network of believers who can grow food, share knowledge, care for the sick, support families, and live out the command to “bear one another’s burdens” (Galatians 6:2). This is not about self-preservation—it’s about Christian fellowship, readiness, and love in uncertain times.

Whether you are skilled in a trade, experienced in gardening, trained in first aid, or simply eager to learn, there is a place for you in the Rooted & Ready mission. On this page, you can indicate the skills you’re willing to share and the areas where you’d like to grow. After you sign up, a Rooted & Ready team member will connect with you to help you get started.
