Our annual Church Christmas Party will be on Sunday December 15th, 6-8pm at the Poustinchi Family Residence. We will have a SignUp Genius starting next week to bring Hor De Vours, as it's a finger food kind of party!

Put it on your calendar and plan to gather together for food, fun, and fellowship as we celebrate the holiday season together. 

At our 8 year anniversary on Labor Day Sun we talked about doing an Ownership Re-commitment this year. 

Ownership is our version of membership.

To become an owner you need to go through our NEXT STEPS class and make the four ownership commitments.

The next Next Steps class is Sunday Nov 17th, right here, right after service. You can register by clicking HERE or put NEXT STEPS on a Connect Card on Sunday.

We will ask EVERYONE who is already an owner to re-commit by completing a new ownership form during Advent this year.

We’re doing a Thanksgiving Sides theme and this time there is a sign up.

You can find the signup genius link HERE.

We look forward to having a great time around great food in two weeks!

Every first Sunday of the month we collect drinks and snacks for the Food Pantry at LPMS.

Mrs Denise Perez, the counseling department liaison for us has requested a few specific things for the Fall:

Small water bottles
Small fruit juice bottles or boxes
Nutri Grain Bars
Granola Bars
Cheez-ITZ

Thank you for helping us BLESS this school. We truly believe that wherever the people of God are, that place should be BLESSED!

This is our biggest outreach opportunity of the year! We’ve been asked by the city of Gaithersburg to be water sponsors for the Gaithersburg Oktoberfest again. We will give away two pallets of water bottles, some RC swag, have a prayer station, and possibly more!

There will be no service at LPMS that morning as we’ll be out serving. Set up begins at 10am.

We'll have a volunteer sign up sheet Sunday on the resource table. We need 3-4 people at our booth for 5 hours, ideally a rotation so volunteers can enjoy walking around too. 

We are also looking for some balloon animal makers. Brian DeRose was awesome last year, but he was alone. If you either know how to make balloon animals, are willing to learn how to to, and/or know someone who does who might want to join us, let Steve or Pastor Ed know.

Keep this opportunity in prayer as we’ll get to meet thousands of people that day!

SUNDAY September 1st we will NOT have our regular worship service at LPMS. Instead we will host our annual Church Anniversary Celebration Picnic… same location as our Father's Day Picnic, the Darnestown Local Park, not far from here right down Darnestown Road. We'll begin with some singing and story sharing at 11:00am, followed by a good ol fashioned pot luck picnic! 

This is a true pot luck, no sign up. Just bring your fav cookout items to share. Pastor Ed will grill brats and hot dogs, and the church will provide bottled water. We will have warming trays for hot items. 

We encourage you to invite family & friends to join the celebration, as we celebrate the goodness of God IN and THROUGH Restoration Church the past 8 years... and envision what's to come!

Bring a chair if you'd like. The pavilion has lots of picnic tables. But you may want to be more comfortable and possibly move into the sun, or grassy shade, along with lawn games, pickle ball gear, basketball, etc.
