WATCH NOWWe have been working and training around the world for many years and, thanks to Jesus, we found Santa Fe, NM. How we got here is a story for another time. Settling down we went to several of the local churches over time but felt like the Lord wanted us to keep searching. Searching for Him. Coming to Christ Church was such an amazing experience. Immediately we felt the spirit of our Lord and the warmth and love of fellow brothers and sisters in Christ. It was like coming home after a long journey. We felt peace and the calling of our Lord that Christ Church Santa Fe was the place He wanted us to be in. We are finally home.

Meredith was raised in a reformed Jewish household. Lee grew up in the Presbyterian church. When they married in 1993, they planned to “celebrate a bit of everything”. BUT GOD had other plans! Strong feelings led to Meredith deciding their baby daughter should be raised a Christian. After having her baptized, Meredith went on a journey of her own, and professed her faith in and dependence on Jesus Christ in 2001. Hailing from Dallas, Texas, but visiting and loving Santa Fe for over 30 years, the Roevers moved here full-time in June 2024. Providentially, they bought a home next door to Pastor Greg and Caitelen Schneeberger, which has been a gift in and of itself! Joining CCSF was part of the Lord’s plan, and they are grateful to have been welcomed with open arms. The Roevers have two adult children, Claire and Michael, who don’t live in Santa Fe, but definitely consider it “home”.

Our entire marriage and family life was spent in Georgia when 1.5 years ago my husband, Don, had the opportunity to come work at Los Alamos National Lab as a consultant. We have thoroughly enjoyed our life here. We love Santa Fe's restaurants, history, mountains and most of all, its people. We started coming to CCSF in January 2023. We were immediately drawn to the strong biblical teaching on Sunday mornings and the warm sense of community found in our Small Group. Through grace, love and that same sense of community, we have found our second family here and couldn't be happier.

After my wife of 20 years passed away in August 2022, a Jewish friend asked me if I had found a church yet. No. Wasn’t even looking, having concluded long ago that most Protestant denominations had wandered too far from the simple teaching and preaching of the Gospel long ago. He suggested I check out Christ Church Santa Fe. My first time attending I knew that this church was a Bible believing, Bible teaching church that preached the Gospel. A kind of church that I had been looking for for decades. I’ve been here ever since.
~ Douglas Brinkman
We began searching for a church before getting married to establish a firm spiritual foundation and community before starting our family. We found Christ Church Santa Fe and have enjoyed the community events and friendships we have built with other members!
~ Callie O'Buckley & Joel Kent
We started attending Christ Church in 2021. What brought us to the church was the solid Biblical teaching of the PCA. Now that we’re here, I’m also so thankful for the chance to serve alongside people who strive for excellence, a children’s ministry where kids of all ages are respected enough to be taught unwatered down truths of Scripture, and the beautiful people we can grow alongside who point us towards Jesus.
~ Ignacio & Katie Reparaz
I moved from Dallas to Santa Fe on May 1, 2022 having visited Northern New Mexico for more than four decades. I knew of CCSF through Martin Ban and visited our church in August 2015 - Martin's last Sunday before his family move to Dallas. In November 2019 God told me that time had come to move to Santa Fe and for two specific purposes: to be part of CCSF and to extend His hospitality to anyone needing it in Santa Fe. The church has warmly welcomed me with open arms since my move in 2022; I love the intimacy of the CCSF family and her heart for our City Different. God has been faithful and gracious in bringing me to this amazing place. I can truly say I love our church!
~ Charlotte Medley
On our first Sunday, we heard the Gospel. Since that day, we have consistently heard the Gospel from the Old and New Testaments taught with grace and conviction. A famous pastor from the 19th century once said, “If you leave a church service thinking about how good the pastor was, you missed the mark. If you leave consumed with Christ, the pastor has been used of the Lord.” We have greatly benefited from the Christ-centered teaching at Christ Church Santa Fe. Please come and visit!
~ John & Jane Freeman
I started coming to Christ Church shortly after moving to Santa Fe in August 2022. The church community is one I wanted to join— one reflective of Biblical community. Not only are the members here fully devoted to Christ but also to one another, showing respect, grace, and support.
~ Harper Whaley
"We found CCSF the first month here in 2002 and became actively part of it. We love our church family. We attended CCSF's first service on August 11, 2002. We immediately felt excited and welcome and never looked back. My purpose is to glorify Him and enjoy Him forever."
- Jennifer Brenner
"We searched for the right church for our family for quite a while. The warmth of the people, strength of the teaching and activities of the children's ministry all drew us to Christ Church." God's purpose for them is "to serve Him, His church, and our community."
- John & Karen Weigle
"There was never a time when God was not a part of my life....I just wish He would send me an email explaining what I should be doing in my life! The best I can do now is try to let God shine through every aspect of my life..."
- Anna Veers

How to Read the Bible (8:45-9:45am) –This Spring we are starting a new Sunday Morning Studies series on how to read the Bible better. By God’s grace, His Church has been given an inspired, inerrant Word, contained in many books, with many authors who were “carried along by the Spirit,” who wrote in various historical periods, in a variety of styles. Have you wondered how to put all that together? Then this is the class for you! Please join us Sunday mornings in the prayer chapel atrium, as we explore this rich topic together!
“Treasuring God’s Word” (for youth 7th-12th grade | 9:00-9:45am) led by Rebecca Healy, Kit Standridge, and Jon & Stephanie Weiss in the Blackbird Room. Learn about the Bible’s history and structure and grow in confidence of its reliability and accuracy, with the goal of maturing in our walk with Christ.
From Genesis to Revelation Bible Survey (for children ages 4 to 6th grade | 9:00-9:45am) – The G2R Bible Survey explores the what, where, and when of God’s revelation. This prepares students to delve deeper into the why and how through the lens of the covenant—God’s promise that “He is our God and we are His people.” Join us in the Coyote Classroom for this terrific study led by Dianne Howes.
Keep up with new updates, activities, and happenings at CCSF!
we invite you to join us in a 1 year (3 chapters per day) Bible Reading Challenge. The goal of this opportunity is above all to hear the voice of God in his word and joyfully grow into a deeper relationship with the Lord Jesus. Below are the scripture readings for this week. These will also be incorporated into our daily devotionals.

Our Children and Youth Ministry is asking for adults willing to help once a month for your selected quarter. This includes: Sunday Morning Nursery, Teachers for Younger Gospel Journey (1st-4th grade), Preschool Assistants for Gospel Journey (2-5yr olds).
You may volunteer for one week per month for one or more of the following quarters:
March – May | June – August | September – November
Helping on Sundays in these areas requires no preparation but it does require a background check and awareness training, which is paid for by the church. Nursery volunteers assist Viola in caring for babies and toddlers, but no diaper changing is required. Lessons for younger Gospel Journey are provided and taught by Jennifer on video. Volunteers facilitate the discussion, teach the weekly craft, and lead the children to and from class. Assisting the preschool class involves leading preschoolers to and from class and helping Dianne with snacks and crafts.
Day/Time: March 2nd, after the Service at 11:45-12:45pm
