Restore Houston Church

They actually organize the dresses small, medium, and large racks.

This is incredible. Place is nice and clean and they offer special deals on certain items.

They don't have a public bathroom which is a bummer but it's still a great store.

Super easy going vibes church, meaningful conversations with free donuts and coffee on the Sunday AM church service.

Bonus is the original shipley’s is 1 minute away.

Get there 5 minutes before 10 am and enjoy an honest, down to earth service at the YMCA. It doesn’t feel like a gym with the smart layout.

There’s child care included with a playground in the back and guided Sunday reflection for the little kids.

Try it and see if you like it.

My wife and I have been with Restore from the very beginning and are more than happy to call it our church home.

I had never been much of a churchgoer as a kid and teenager, it always felt cold and distant to me. The idea that I would regularly attend church on Sundays or even be actively participating seemed unlikely. If I was ever going to be part of a church it would have to be free from the prejudices and biases that I felt were usually present.
When we moved to Houston and got to know Pastor Justin, he, his family, and Restore immediately became an essential part of what makes Houston home for us. Restore's efforts to be inclusive for absolutely everyone feel genuine and are demonstrated every day by Pastor Justin who is always ready to support you and to talk to you about absolutely anything with kindness and honesty. On Sundays, he delivers his message of love and grace through intelligent sermons that discuss bible verses through the lens of the original writers and point out the significance of the text in the modern world, which really appeals to me.

If you want to be in a church that is open-minded, supportive and loving to anyone, Restore will be a great home for you. Also, they have hot coffee. :)

My wife and I started attending Restore when it started online in 2020. It meets in a classroom at the YMCA on Sunday morning so it’s not a big church, but that doesn’t matter. We love it because of the people in the community. The people are kind and inviting. They lean into welcoming you and are authentic. The church is really focused on being a community that follows Jesus. It’s welcoming to everyone, whether you are just curious or already follow Jesus. It’s been a great place for us to build friendships and experience God’s presence.

Restore is a breath of fresh air! This church plant on the north side of the heights, are an incredibly loving, welcoming, and gracious bunch who take Jesus seriously. They are open and inclusive, welcoming anyone and everyone regardless of their struggles, doubts, sexual orientation, or anything else to come experience the grace and love of Jesus and to actually participate in this community of faith. I am grateful they are here, They are bringing the grace and love of Jesus to the north side of Houston making it a brighter and more beautiful place.

Discovered this church Easter of 2021by accident, my friend told me we were going to a brewery to meet up with his girl friends cousins, but he forgot to mention that we’d be attending a second Easter service (we had went to a service earlier that morning). And did I mention it was at a brewery…got to enjoy some beers with the fellow members which was wonderful.

Long story short, I was completely captivated by the warm hospitality and welcoming of the pastor and it’s members and I immediately felt like part of their family and not an outsider.

The church as a whole as well as it’s pastor Justin truly reflect what Christ would desire his church to be: inclusive, loving, community impacting, and not caught up in religious dogma or excluding others based on tertiary matters of opinions.

This church can be called home by anyone, and is also a great place to get plugged into a small group to grow deeper with fellow members and work through life and all of our own individual relationships with Christ.

No matter where you are at with Christ, even if you wouldn’t call yourself a Christ follower, this church still welcomes you and seeks to be a home for you to grow and explore who and what Christ is and what he desires for a church.

Come experience this wonderful community and see what we’re all about. I’m sure you’ll come to love it just as I had.
