ABOUT US
Welcome to Life Restoration Center! We are a Bible-based, Spirit-filled, loving, and diverse church where everyone is WELCOME.
Our Beliefs
We believe and preach the apostles doctrine straight from the book of Acts. We are a church that ushers in the presence of God through worship and praise and we allow Him to move freely in our services. We encourage our members to love others as Christ loved us. Giving faithfully of our time, finances, and gifts is a vital part of our Pastors teachings.
Oneness/The Godhead
We believe that there is one God, who is the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, all manifested in the person of Jesus Christ. This foundational truth shapes everything we believe and practice.
Water Baptism
A core teaching here at LRC, is the necessity of water baptism in Jesus' name. According to the Bible, baptism by immersion in the name of Jesus Christ is essential for the forgiveness of sins and for entering into a new life with God. It is not just a symbolic act but a commandment that must be followed for salvation.
Infilling of the Holy Spirit
Another key belief is the infilling of the Holy Spirit. The Word teaches that speaking in tongues is the first initial sign that you have been filled with His Spirit, just as the early disciples did in the book of Acts.
The Bible
At our church, we believe that the Bible is the living, breathing Word of God. It is not just a historical book but a powerful and active guide for our lives today. Every verse is inspired by God and holds timeless truth, offering wisdom, direction, and correction. We hold the Bible as the final authority in all matters of faith and practice, believing that it has the power to transform lives and bring us into a deeper relationship with God.
