Welcome to Our Community
The Church of Christ Restored in Vancouver, Washington is a Restoration Branch congregation formed in 1976 to preserve the original teachings of the RLDS tradition. We are a community of believers dedicated to following Christ's teachings and preparing for His return.
Our congregation is centered on scripture, prayer, and fellowship. We believe in the Bible and the Book of Mormon as the word of God, and we seek to live according to their teachings. We welcome all who wish to worship with us and learn more about the restored gospel.
We invite you to join us in worship as we seek to follow Christ and prepare for His return. Our doors and hearts are open to all who wish to learn of the restored gospel.

What We Believe
Our Foundation
We believe in the Bible (Inspired Version) and the Book of Mormon as the word of God. Our mission is to prepare for the restoration of Zion and the return of Jesus Christ.
Our Heritage
We separated from the RLDS church (now Community of Christ) in 1976 to preserve the original teachings and practices of the early Reorganized Church. We are not affiliated with the LDS Church (Mormon) or Community of Christ.
Our Faith
We believe in Jesus Christ as the head of the Church and the foundation of our faith and practice. We maintain the priesthood offices and authority as established in the early Restoration and believe in continuing revelation through the Holy Spirit in accordance with scripture.

Epitome of Faith and Doctrine
- We believe in God the Eternal Father, and in his Son Jesus Christ, and in the Holy Ghost.
- We believe that men will be punished for their own sins, and not for Adam's transgression.
- We believe that through the atonement of Jesus Christ all mankind may be saved by obedience to the laws and ordinances of the gospel.
- We believe that these ordinances are, first, faith in the Lord Jesus Christ; second, repentance; third, baptism by immersion for the remission of sins; fourth, laying on of hands for the gift of the Holy Ghost.
- We believe that a man must be called of God by prophecy, and by laying on of hands by those who are in authority to preach the gospel and administer in the ordinances thereof.
- We believe in the same organization that existed in the primitive church; viz., apostles, prophets, pastors, teachers, evangelists, etc.
- We believe in the gift of tongues, prophecy, revelation, visions, healing, interpretation of tongues, etc.
- We believe the Bible to be the word of God as far as it is translated correctly; we also believe the Book of Mormon to be the word of God.
- We believe all that God has revealed, all that he does now reveal, and we believe that he will yet reveal many great and important things pertaining to the kingdom of God.
- We believe in the literal gathering of Israel and in the restoration of the Ten Tribes, that Zion will be built upon this continent, that Christ will reign personally upon the earth, and that the earth will be renewed and receive its paradisiac glory.
- We claim privilege of worshiping Almighty God according to the dictates of our conscience, and allow all men the same privilege, let them worship how, where, or what they may.
- We believe in being subject to kings, presidents, rulers, and magistrates, in obeying, honoring, and sustaining the law.
- We believe in being honest, true, chaste, benevolent, virtuous, and in doing good to all men; indeed we may say that we follow the admonition of Paul, we believe all things, we hope all things, we have endured many things, and hope to endure all things. If there is anything virtuous, lovely, or of good report or praiseworthy, we seek after these things.
Respectfully,
Joseph Smith, Jr.
