VISION HIGHLIGHTS
Hab. 2 vs 3 - "write the vision down and make it plain upon tablets."
At Restoration Worship Centre our vision has three aspects. It is focused on God, focused on the body and focused on the world.
A FOCUS ON GOD
Matt. 22 vs 37 -38 "Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind. This is the first and great commandment."
Our first goal is to build a relationship with The Father, The Son and The Holy Spirit.
WORSHIP
Restoration seeks to be a worshipping church. We purpose to bring the worship of God into the centre of all our activities because it is in worship that we
-express our love for Him
-enjoy fellowship with him
-know him more
-realize all that he is in us and for us.
We encourage each member of the church to develop a personal relationship with the Lord via a lifestyle of worship.
The worship of Restoration Worship Centre can be described by two distinct ways: reach up and reach out music. The primary purpose of the reach up is to draw God while the purpose of reach out is to draw men into a close contact with the presence of God.
PRAYER
Restoration seeks to be a praying church. We will make provision for varied corporate prayer meetings to soak everything we do in prayer as a church. We acknowledge the power of intercessions authority in spiritual warfare against spiritual strongholds that resists the plan of God on behalf of individual's body of Christ and nations. Our goal is to raise or train intercessors / spiritual warfare workers and members.
ANNOINTING
We seek to be a spirit filled, spirit lead and spirit empowered church. We will encourage each member to personally seek to receive the baptism of the Holy Spirit and on going in filling of the Holy Spirit. Eph 15 vs 18
FOCUS ON THE BODY OF CHRIST
In building a relationship with God our vision also is embedded in building sound relationships with one another as a body.
CARING
Restoration seeks to be a caring and working church, where each member of the family cares for others. We seek to show our value for the family unit by strengthening and encouraging family bonds within the target church family. We esteem and recognize the importance of each member of the church.
TRAINING
We purpose to build a church based on the foundation of God's Word.Our purpose is help each one discover their gifting and equip them to function effectively. We purpose to work together with an apostolic / prophetic trans local team to function as a biblical model church and to help equip every member according to Eph 4 vs 11-16.
NETWORKING
We believe that as a church we are an entity in the body of Christ that needs to co-exist with other local churches to thrive. We affirm the uniqueness of each church and recognize the need to co-exist. We purpose to inter relate with the body of Christ locally and internationally, as we build relationships and work together to see the full expression of God's purpose in our time and seasons. We determine not to speak negatively about or harm in any way any church in our town / city. We seek to rather bless other church leaders and their members to build the unity in the bond of peace in Christ who is the Prince of Peace.
FOCUS ON THE WORLD
We seek to declare the gospel in varied settings using varied approaches, i.e. through character, good works, power preaching outreaches and conferences.
We purpose to reach our community as a local church and in collaboration with other churches for the end time harvest of souls. We purpose to encourage, build and plant new churches as God leads us.
We seek for dynamic churches to be planted that will be culturally congruence and relevant to the needs of the people.
We seek to disciple nations by planting churches as the word directs through short and long term outreaches to nations.

MUSIC ART AND INDUSTRY
The worship ministry of Restoration Healing Word Ministries can be described in two distinct ways: Reach up music and reach out music and art.
·Our reach up music and art ministry's primary purpose is to make music towards God and draw fellow men into close contact with God / draw God's presence.
·Our reach out music's primary purpose is music towards fellow me by sharing Gods love and plan for their lives.
God created man to become a worshipper. Once people find spiritual fulfillment via Christ, they begin their own journey of a worship life. We reach up and reach out so that others can reach up too. Praise and power rallies are an evangelistic tool aimed at drawing men unto Christ Jesus.
