Rooted in Jesus is a low cost, sustainable programme which has been proven to bring both spiritual and numerical growth to individuals, churches and dioceses. It is designed for use with small discipleship groups, for confirmation preparation, and for evangelism and church planting. Some dioceses also use it in their Bible Colleges.
The Synod of the Diocese of Kitale sitting in September 2019 endorsed the partnership with Rooted in Jesus. The program was officially launched in 2020 with a four-day residential training conference for clergy and lay leaders.
