The parking lot is being paved as we speak! Brian has been working on the roof of the new Sanctuary. They have also been working on the roof on the foyer. They are working on the drains on the north and south end of the foyer. This should be at minimum, 80 % completed. The wall for the new restrooms should be framed. There is a sample of the light fixtures, which will be used in the New Sanctuary. All the sidewalk around the new part has been poured. Brian had two small areas left to pour. Concrete is 95 % completed. (Update provided by Jake Juarez) Wed, 16 Apr 2008 17:09:18 MST http://www.restchurch.org/app/w_page.php?type=section&id=13 http://www.restchurch.org/app/w_page.php?type=section&id=13&article_id=166 Parking Lot: The entire curb has been poured for the parking lot. Brian will meet with sub on paving the parking lot. Brian is shooting for the week of November 26 to pave the lot. The land scape sub is presently working on some of the things he needs to do. The stucco crew has completed installing the wire and is waiting for an inspection sometime today. Brian did not give me a day for the stucco to be done. The insulation is on site. Brian is going install all the banding before he lays the insulation. His plan is to lay the insulation and cover it with the roof metal so he doesn’t get any moisture on the insulation. There is also work being done on the foyer roof. Wed, 16 Apr 2008 17:09:18 MST http://www.restchurch.org/app/w_page.php?type=section&id=13 http://www.restchurch.org/app/w_page.php?type=section&id=13&article_id=167 Wed, 16 Apr 2008 17:09:18 MST http://www.restchurch.org/app/w_page.php?type=section&id=13 http://www.restchurch.org/app/w_page.php?type=section&id=13&article_id=165 The east wall should be sheeted on Friday. The south and west walls will be sheeted on arrival of the window. Brian (Colo. Commerc. Buildrs.) has scheduled to have the window on site in three weeks. Then they will sheet both wall and stucco a.s.a.p. The insulation for the roof should be on site next week. They should begin roofing next week. CCB would like to pave the parking lot on or before November 15th.

Then start sheeting the east wall. Deck the foyer and finish the metal work on the east wall of the foyer. The metal frames for the door on the west side of the building will also be set. CCB has made the decision to delay work on the fire line and concentrate on getting the building into a dry status. Brian is working with the electrical folk attempting to have all the parking lot lights on for our Light the Night event. This will only be temporary for that night. CCB is working on taking out some of the concrete that cracked in the Sanctuary. .

My wife and I first started attending when our daughter Danielle invited us. She was coming to the Restoration Youth Group at the time. We felt welcomed the minute we walked in the door! We have been here ever since. I started playing on the worship team in 2004 and now I lead an awesome group of musicians. Because music is my passion, I feel I have an awesome opportunity to praise and worship God with the gift He has given me. Nothing pleases me more than to lead people into experiencing God through music.

Women's Ministry gathers, trains, and encourages women in the building of strong and accountable relationships with other women within and without the body of Restoration Church Ministry to women happens in 2 intentional ways First our twice a month Bible study takes women into the heart of the scriptures while providing room for life giving relationships in an intimate environment Secondly Valley Moms serves mothers of all ages (click on the Valley Moms tab on the home page for more information).

We reach OUTWARD in ministry. As a church we want to be internally focused by meeting the needs of those that call Restoration church home BUT we must also be external and reach out to our community.

We reach INWARD by focusing on spiritual disciplines, fellowship through small groups and spending quality time with God Sat, 16 Feb 2008 20:39:28 MST http://www.restchurch.org/app/w_page.php?type=section&id=17 http://www.restchurch.org/app/w_page.php?type=section&id=17&article_id=186 Worshiping God is priority. Both in private devotion, corporate worship and times of prayer we reach UPWARD to God in worship. Sat, 16 Feb 2008 20:38:55 MST http://www.restchurch.org/app/w_page.php?type=section&id=17 http://www.restchurch.org/app/w_page.php?type=section&id=17&article_id=183 Restoration church is a diverse group of people that come together for a common purpose. Our atmosphere is relaxed and come as you are. If you are comfortable in a tie, wear it. If you prefer jeans and a tee shirt – go for it! All are welcome. Our Sunday morning celebrations begin with a time of worship with our 707 worship team. Our worship time varies from contemplative to expressive, we love worshiping God in different ways. We also like to use media and creative arts to make the message of the scriptures come alive. We believe in vibrant relationships and do all that we can to help you connect. We love families and have tons of great opportunities on Sundays for Children Teaching is always an important part of our Sunday Morning gatherings. We want the message of the scriptures to be alive, relevant and vibrant. This year we are taking an approach which our pastor calls an “organic return to the scriptures”. The word “organic” means “derived from a living organism” or food raised without the use of chemicals and preservatives. In other words it is an element in its purist form. We are returning organically by returning to the scriptures in a VERSE BY VERSE format. It is common to pick a topic and then find scripture verse to defend that topic and that is ok, but this year we are starting with the scriptures and letting the scriptures lead us.Our mission is "Restoring People to God" and our process is simple: Sat, 16 Feb 2008 20:38:06 MST http://www.restchurch.org/app/w_page.php?type=section&id=12 http://www.restchurch.org/app/w_page.php?type=section&id=12&article_id=116 I have worked at Restoration Church for almost 5 awesome years. I have been married to Danny, the Worship Director here at Restoration Church for 24 years. We have two amazing children, Danielle, 21 and Nicholas 18. I received my B.S. in Organizational Management with an emphasis in Christian Leadership at Colorado Christian University in May (2007). I gave my life to Jesus Christ, February (2002) and have experienced amazing things since then. I have recieved an abundance of blessings in my life from God and I am grateful to Him for entering into my life.

The sound team is an exciting place to be and we look forward to the training and developement of future members and the growth of the ministry with our new building. The sound team is always looking for people who would like to participate in serving the Lord through this exciting ministry. Mon, 11 Feb 2008 15:23:41 MST
