At Restore Church, we believe the Bible is God's inspired Word and the final authority for faith and life. We believe Jesus Christ is the Son of God, the Savior of the world, and the only way to eternal life. We believe salvation is a free gift of God's grace received through faith in Jesus Christ. We believe the Holy Spirit empowers believers to live victorious lives, grow in spiritual maturity, and continue the ministry of Jesus in the earth today.

We are a Bible-believing, Spirit-filled church committed to helping people know God, find freedom, discover purpose, and make a difference. We believe God is still healing, restoring, delivering, saving, and transforming lives today.

We believe the Bible is the inspired, infallible, and authoritative Word of God. It is the foundation for our faith and the standard by which we live our lives.

Scriptures: 2 Timothy 3:16-17, Hebrews 4:12, Psalm 119:105

We believe there is one God, eternally existing in three persons: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. Each is fully God and works together in perfect unity.

Scriptures: Matthew 28:19, 2 Corinthians 13:14, Deuteronomy 6:4

We believe Jesus Christ is the Son of God. He was born of a virgin, lived a sinless life, died on the cross for our sins, was buried, rose again on the third day, ascended to heaven, and will return again.

Scriptures: John 3:16, Romans 5:8, 1 Corinthians 15:3-4, Acts 1:11

We believe salvation is found only through faith in Jesus Christ. Every person has sinned and needs God's forgiveness. Salvation is a gift of grace that cannot be earned through good works.

Scriptures: Acts 1:8, Acts 2:4, John 14:16-17

We believe the gifts of the Holy Spirit are active and available today. We encourage believers to pursue spiritual gifts for the purpose of building up the Church and reaching the world.

Scriptures: 1 Corinthians 12:4-11, 1 Corinthians 14:1, Romans 12:6-8

We believe healing was provided through the finished work of Jesus Christ and remains available today. We believe God heals physically, emotionally, mentally, and spiritually.

Scriptures: Isaiah 53:5, Matthew 8:16-17, James 5:14-16

We believe faith is foundational to the Christian life. Through faith in God's promises, believers can walk in victory, overcome life's challenges, and fulfill God's purpose for their lives.

Scriptures: Hebrews 11:6, Mark 11:22-24, Romans 10:17

We believe the Church is the Body of Christ and exists to worship God, disciple believers, serve people, and share the Gospel with the world.

Scriptures: Matthew 28:19-20, Acts 2:42-47, Ephesians 4:11-16

We believe Jesus Christ will personally return for His Church and establish His eternal kingdom. We live with hope and expectation for His return.

Scriptures: 1 Thessalonians 4:16-18, Titus 2:13, Revelation 22:12

Restore Church exists to:

Restore People — Bringing people back to Christ and helping them grow in their relationship with Him.

Restore Community — Building authentic, faith-filled relationships within the Body of Christ.

Restore Culture — Impacting Alton and the surrounding communities with the love, truth, and power of God's Word.

We believe the local church should be the hands and feet of Jesus, bringing hope, healing, and restoration wherever it goes.

At Restore Church, we believe children are not just the future of the Church—they are an important part of the Church right now. That's why Restore Kids is designed to provide a safe, fun, and engaging environment where children can learn about Jesus on their level and build a strong foundation of faith that will last a lifetime.

Every week, our team creates an exciting experience filled with age-appropriate Bible lessons, worship, games, activities, and hands-on learning opportunities. Our goal is to help every child understand God's love, grow in their relationship with Him, and discover who He has created them to be. We want children to leave each week knowing that God loves them, they belong, and they have a purpose.

At Restore Kids, we are committed to partnering with parents in the spiritual development of their children. We believe some of the most important ministry happens in the home, and we want to equip families with the tools, encouragement, and support they need to help their children grow in faith throughout the week.

From infants through elementary-aged children, our desire is to provide a secure and welcoming environment where kids can have fun, make friends, and experience Jesus in a meaningful way. Whether it's your first visit or you've been with us for years, our team is excited to welcome your family to Restore Kids!

• Safe and secure check-in and check-out procedures
• Background-checked and trained volunteers
• Age-appropriate Bible lessons and activities
• Interactive worship, games, and fun experiences
• A loving environment where every child is valued and encouraged

At Restore Kids, we're helping the next generation know God, grow in faith, and become everything He has called them to be.

-Restore YTH Page: COMING SOON - Something exciting is coming for the next generation at Restore Church!

Restore YTH is being built with one mission in mind: helping students encounter Jesus, build authentic relationships, and discover their God-given purpose. We believe today's students are not the future of the Church—they are a vital part of the Church right now. Our heart is to create a place where middle school and high school students can grow in their faith, ask honest questions, build lasting friendships, and experience the presence and power of God in a real way.

When Restore YTH launches, students can expect dynamic services, engaging Bible teaching, worship experiences, small groups, outreach opportunities, fun events, and a community that genuinely cares about them. We are passionate about raising up a generation of young people who are confident in their identity in Christ, equipped to live out their faith, and empowered to make a difference in their schools, homes, and communities.

At Restore Church, we believe God has incredible plans for the next generation, and we're committed to investing in them. We can't wait to share more details as Restore YTH prepares to launch. Stay connected and follow along—we believe the best is yet to come!
