“The harvest is plentiful, but the workers are few…”

Greetings from our 3rd Rooted Summer Missions team!
What an amazing testament of God’s faithfulness in our ministry,
to be able to continuously send a team every summer to harvest field.
Praise God for this opportunity to pursue after His heart, and praise God
for extending to us His welcome into the wider Kingdom work in the world!

    • Evangelism in the local communities

    • Safety and team unity!

    • God’s purpose to be carried out faithfully by our team, & that we’d be able to follow after His heart.

The Team

  • Hannah Thomas

    JUNIOR/PICKLE MUNCHER

    After learning about & falling in love with evangelism in her recent years, Hannah joined Rooted's new highschool missions team this past & upcoming summer. For this year, she knows that God will do amazing things through this team and trip, and is looking forward to all of His upcoming plans.

    Hannah's prayer request for this trip is for safety, guidance, especially spiritually, throughout, and a focused heart and mind on spreading the Gospel and sharing God's Word in Mexico.

  • Isaaac Lee

    SENIOR/LIGHTNING MCQUEEN

    Isaac enjoys playing golf as well as volleyball. He also likes to watch TV, play video games, and hangout with friends. Fun facts about Isaac is that he is a second-degree blackbelt in Tae Kwon Do and used to play baseball when he was younger.

    His prayer request is that he will be able to grow in my relationship with Christ, and that God will be with our entire mission team as we spread His word.

  • Kayden Huang

    SENIOR/BASICALLY FILIPINO

    Having recently joined Pathway, Kayden has already found home in the youth group community. He’s had experience in 2 missions trips, one in the Navajo Nation located in Arizona, and the second in the Philippines last month. Some activities he likes is playing sports, traveling, and playing video games with friends. He’s also played soccer in high school, and club in the past, and has traveled to 5 different countries.

    His prayer request is to have perseverance through tough and stressful situations, safe travels to Mexico, and to experience God on this trip.

  • Micah Moon

    SOPHOMORE/M&M MUNCHER

    After living his life out for God since he was a child, Micah has learned countless things about God and his people. One question that drives him to serve: if God was able to give all He has for the world, why can’t Micah give all he has in that moment for someone else?

    His prayer request, is to be patient and to love the others on this trip. That not just himself but others to also meet God on a personal level, and hopefully bring them one step closer to God.

  • Ryan So

    SOPHOMORE/

  • Bill Kim

    PASTOR/MAC & CHEESE CONNOISSEUR

    After being a part of his very first short-term trip in HS, he fell in love with the wider Kingdom work being done in the world. And after almost 13 years, 18 trips to 10 different countries; God has only increased that love for missions more and more.

    His prayer request is for wisdom as he leads the team, safety for the team, and for the students to encounter God in a deep, personal way as they follow God’s invitation to the Kingdom work in Mexico.
