Rooted & Ready
Intentional, faith-centered gatherings for singles who want real connection — not dating apps.
Why Rooted & Ready Exists
Dating apps weren't built for people who value faith, community, and intentional relationships.
Rooted & Ready exists to create in-person spaces where Christian singles can meet naturally, build connection, and explore relationships at a healthy pace — without pressure or awkward setups.
This isn't a church program or a matchmaking service.
It's a community.
What Makes This Different
Faith-forward, not forced
Your faith matters here, but we're not preachy. Just genuine connection rooted in shared values.
Structured enough to feel safe
Guided activities and conversation prompts take the pressure off and help you relax.
Relaxed enough to feel natural
No awkward lineups or forced interactions. Just comfortable spaces for real conversation.
Built around conversation
Not performance. Not games. Just thoughtful prompts that lead to meaningful connection.
Designed for real connection
Not endless swiping. Meet people face-to-face and see if there's a spark.
Community over competition
Everyone here shares your values. You're among friends, not strangers.
Is This For You?
This is for you if you:

- Care about intentional dating
- Want to meet people face-to-face

This may not be for you if you:
