Hi friend,
I pray this finds you well.
Ladies, God has put a very special event on my heart these past weeks and I want to remind you, or perhaps make you aware, of it before it takes place, and you miss out. One of the first things we did after arriving here in Idaho to plant Restored was to interview some of the local pregnancy care centers to discover who God wanted us to connect with. After speaking with Stanton Healthcare Pregnancy Center and hearing their vision for helping moms to choose life, we knew we wanted to partner with them. This is our 7th year together and we couldn’t be more honored to have financially assisted with the births of several hundreds of babies here in our valley!
This Thursday at 6:30pm, in our new Restored Life Center, RCC ladies will be gathering to host a Baby Shower where we’ll round up many of the needed gifts for moms who’ve chosen life. What an amazing outreach opportunity this will be! I strongly encourage you to come out and be a blessing to these brave young women and their little ones. You can find more info, along with the list of suggested gifts, at Restoredcommunitychurch.org
Additionally, I want to tell you that our recent Baby Bottle Drive netted over $10,000 in gifts to Stanton! Thank you for helping us choose life in a tangible way, and thank You, Lord, for bringing this all together!
Our church is known for its many generous people as evidenced in the weekly giving, and in the blessing of our new worship center! So many have given one-time gifts, and many more have committed to giving monthly gifts, as well, to the Restored Life Center @ RCC. Now for the latest update: We set a total giving goal several months back of $3.3M by the time we entered the building and guess what? We made it!! Thank you for your selfless giving to help us get closer to the goal of having a mortgage-free church! This new building will allow us to grow our mission in the Treasure Valley of reaching people with The Gospel of Jesus Christ, and you are an integral part of all that goes on here at Restored. If you haven’t yet had the opportunity to give to the Lord’s work here at RCC, I would ask you to pray about it first, and then go forward with whatever God tells you to do. In the next 40 days, we will need to finalize the balance of our mortgage. We know He has all this in His hands, and that He will continue to provide just as He always has done since our beginning. To God be the glory!
Upcoming Events:
Shop Talk Sunday July 21 @ 9am upstairs in Room A. Come discover how our church was planted, what we believe, where we’re going, and where you can serve!
Did you know that RCC has an amazing preschool led by Ms. Vicki? Registration for the fall at Restored Christian Preschool is now open and we have a limited number of spaces available for students. 3-year-old classes are held on Tuesdays and Thursdays. 4-year-old classes are held Tuesdays – Fridays. Register online at Restoredcommunitychurch.org or contact the church office for more information.
God is pouring out His many blessings on RCC and I truly believe that our best days lay just ahead of us! I am so glad you’re a part of this faithful, and growing church of believers!
In His grip,
Pastor Ben
