Saving the Lost at ANY Cost

Welcome to The Set!

This is a Harp and Bowl Worship Service.  Harp and Bowl worship is a practice where Harps (songs of Praise & Worship) and Bowls (prayers) are combined to create a dynamic structure for intercessory prayer  (inspired by Revelation 5:8). 

Harp and Bowl emphasizes unified prayer, congregational singing, and a flow between intercession, worship, and personal prayer.  Join us in person or send your prayer request by using our chat icon or email us at info@stlrestorationchurch.org and we'll pray for you.

We center our prayer service around a monthly focus scripture which you can find below.

Romans 15:5-7 (New King James Version - NKJV)

5 Now may the God of patience and comfort grant you to be like-minded toward one another, according to Christ Jesus, 

6 that you may with one mind and one mouth glorify the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ.

7 Therefore receive one another, just as Christ also received [a]us, to the glory of God.

Romans 15:5-7 (New Living Translation - NLT)

5 May God, who gives this patience and encouragement, help you live in complete harmony with each other, as is fitting for followers of Christ Jesus. 

6 Then all of you can join together with one voice, giving praise and glory to God, the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ.

7 Therefore, accept each other just as Christ has accepted you so that God will be given glory.

Romans 15:5-7 (The Voice - VOICE)

5 I pray that our God, who calls you and gives you perseverance and encouragement, will join all of you together to share one mind according to Jesus the Anointed. 

6 In this unity, you will share one voice as you glorify the one True God, the Father of our Lord Jesus, the Anointed One, our Liberating King.

7 So accept one another in the same way the Anointed has accepted you so that God will get the praise He is due.
