Bill Moore

Discipleship Pastor


My life is enriched by being a husband to Kristen and father to Gabriella and Vivienne. I grew up in Houston, Texas, spent a decade in North Carolina, and three years in Vancouver, BC, before landing here, in my wife’s home state. I really enjoy traveling, but being rooted even more. I also love being outside with a purpose, such as hunting, fishing, hiking, or grilling.

Chris Arvin

Youth & College Director


I was born and raised in Henrico County and I’ve spent the last four years at Hope Church. While I was in high school, my youth pastor pulled me into her office for a school project and showed me what grace, compassion, and love from God truly looked like. This encounter made me dive deeper into what the Lord had for me and set my heart on fire for developing the faith of those below me. In my free time I love watching sports, playing board games, going bowling, and rewatching tv series on Netflix.

Kristen Moore

CHildren's Director


I grew up in Virginia, and am so delighted for my family to be back here! I discovered my love for God and his Word at a very young age, and am convinced children of all ages can have vital and joyful relationships with God. I delight in teaching the Word of God, praying that others will be caught up in God's grand unfolding story of redemption. I love laughing, drinking coffee, playing games, reading, any kind of celebration, and going on adventures with my family.

AMANDA SEIDERS

My husband, Cory, and I have three children, Caleb, Ashley and Abby. I love watching them play sports and play music and hanging out with my family. I taught 3rd grade before I had children, and have been a preschool teacher and an instructional assistant. While I enjoyed being in the school system, my job at Restoration allows me serve others within our congregation and our community.
