Restoration Abbey is a young church worshiping in the heart of San Marcos. Our aim is to form unlikely friends into the friends of God, and join God in the restoration of all things.

What’s an abbey?

Abbeys began as intentional communities established next to local towns offering sanctuary and solitude for the weary.

Abbeys incorporated all parts of life, spiritual, economic, and relational, in the pursuit of peace-filled wholeness.

An abbey’s story was interwoven between the community of faith and the people they loved in neighboring cities and towns. We think that these relationships, this “being with,” is at the heart of the gospel.

Since our inception, we’ve wondered, what would a modern day abbey look like here in San Marcos? What would be some distinguishing features of people who were part of this community?

Together where we live.
