Who We Are

Our History

We were founded on April 29, 2007 in a town outside Athens, GA. Our first service was in a concrete building, previously a chicken hatchery, that we later remodeled into a beautiful church facility. In May 2016, we moved to our current location in the heart of Winterville. RAC is active in our community and a member of the United Pentecostal Church International.

Pastor’s Family and Bio

Edward and Candace Walden are both natives of Georgia. Candi grew up in the Church of the Lord Jesus Christ where her grandparents, Grady and Gervais Eberhardt, pastored. Ed began attending the church in the early 90s where he met and later married Candi in 1994. They served under the leadership of the Eberhardts for several years. The two began evangelizing until hearing the call of God to start Restoration Apostolic Church in 2007. They have 2 children, Jake and Annabeth, who are both married to Destinie and Landon.

“We love our church like it’s our own family, and we believe in the work God is doing in Winterville. The best is yet to come!”
