The Navajo Nation of Utah, Arizona, New Mexico, and Colorado is a fertile mission field for the Gospel of Jesus Christ. A handful of preachers serve a dozen churches scattered over hundreds of square miles in some of the most beautiful, but deeply impoverished places in the United States. Roots Missions is an organization of missionaries, ministers, college professors, lay leaders, and devoted volunteers that work tirelessly to serve these missionary families, the congregations they lead, and the Christians of "the Rez" (Reservation). To fulfill this mission, the organization provides training for preachers, organizes short and long term mission efforts, raises funds for continuing support, helps with facilities and repairs, presents conferences, advocates in support of needs, and brings much needed medical/counseling help to our brothers and sisters in Christ.
