About Rooted
Rooted is 1Mosaic’s Student ministries for students in the 7th-12th grades. We meet on Sunday nights throughout the year along with various events, camps, and retreats that take place. Our goal is to see students root themselves in God and His teachings. Then live according to His word while being discipled by mature faithful adult leaders.

Ali Broat
Ali graduated from LCS and has been at 1Mosaic since the church's beginning. She loves NASCAR and photography which she uses to run the Rooted Instagram account. She initially started helping in Rooted because Tad and Angie Kruse, the Rooted leaders before Kyle, made her… But then she stayed because she loved it so much.

Brent & Marley Walters
The Walters have been attending 1Mosaic since 2016. Brent and Marley have always had a passion for working with kids and pouring into the youth at 1Mosaic through their children’s ministry. They were called to Rooted in 2021 because of God's working in their hearts to walk along students in their journey to and after salvation. Brent and Marley’s hope is to create relationships with students and to be an encouragement to them in their daily lives.
