Jae and Christina Smith

Lead Pastors
 
Christina and I were appointed Lead Pastors in December of 2016. At that time we were known as Impact Church. In the summer of 2019, God put a burden on my heart like I have never experienced before about the direction of the church. So in September of that year, we relaunched the church under the name Restoration Church. God was calling us to be a place that cared about the hurting, restored those who had been broken by sin, and then release them into their God-given purpose.
 
I’ve lived in Greenville most of my life and I love this city. My wife comes from a “journeying” family. She has lived in Greenville longer than any other place, so she is officially a “Greenvillian” now as well. It is our goal to simply love people well and to share the truth of the gospel in a real, raw, and relevant way. 
 
 
 
 

Danielle Campbell

Worship Pastor
 
I have had the opportunity to grow up and serve here at Restoration Church since I was a young girl. I started out in the youth group, became a student leader, student worship leader, and in 2016 God gave me the incredible opportunity to step into the role of Worship Pastor. 
 
My heart beats for worship and the idea that God invites us into His presence. I am so thankful that I have the chance to lead people into His presence and to teach people what it means to make a place for Him. I don’t look at worship as something we do, it is who we are and what we are created to do.

Richard and Lizzie Stallworth

Youth Pastors
 
Richard and Lizzie were appointed youth pastors in 2023; however, they are not new to us at Restoration Church. They were members here and served faithful for years. They left for about 9 years due to moving to another city. They have a heart for the students of Restoration Church and our surrounding community. They both served in the youth ministry under Pastor Jae, when he was the youth pastor, ran the bus ministry, and drama ministry. Together they have over 30 years of ministry experience, serving in various places from children’s ministry, youth ministry, recovery ministry, drama ministry, women’s ministry, men’s ministry, and all the way to prison ministry. 
 
Richard has a Bachelors of Divinity from Ohio Christian University and is currently pursuing his Masters of Divinity with concentrations in Discipleship and Theology from Regent University. Lizzie has a Bachelor of Science in Education with concentrations in English and history. She also has a Master of Education. She taught school for over 9 years; however, she decided to leave her career behind to serve the Lord full-time.
Both describe themselves as “worker bees.” They like being behind the scenes doing the grunt work! They take their calling in ministry very seriously and aim for excellence in all they do. 
 
They have two daughters, Lauren(25) and Mary Kate(22). Their oldest, Lauren, got married in May of 2023 and is an elementary teacher. Mary Kate is currently a student at Ole Miss where she is pursuing a Bachelor of Marketing and Finance. Pastors Richard and Lizzie also have two dogs. Leo is a three year old pit-beadle mix that they rescued. And Samson is a Bordooble that is spoiled absolutely rotten!
