Leadership

Cris is a native of Moriarty. He loves Jesus and his family. Cris has a passion for critical thinking when looking at the Scriptures and a love for apologetics. He is also a pretty great musician who loves to lead God's people in worship. Cris is the current Senior Pastor of CCEV. 

Willie is the kind of guy that everyone is surprised and relieved to find out that he became a Christian. He is a living example of the grace of God towards sinners. Willie serves in Kids Church, Men's Ministry, Evangelism, and just about anything else he is asked to do. 

Mike was born and raised in NM.  He had very little exposure to Jesus but was introduced to new age spirituality at a young age by a family friend. By the time he was in college he was a drug addicted, violent, angry, guy who hated Jesus, the Bible, Christians, and Christianity. By Easter 2000 he had tried everything from Buddhism to Wicca Witchcraft in his search for answers and that's where Jesus met him. He gave his life to Christ that day and the Lord spent the next several years healing him and renewing his mind. In September 2009 he answered the Lord's call to pastor Calvary Chapel Estancia Valley where he stayed committed to passionately teaching the Bible and reaching the lost for Christ.

Mike and his family are humbled and grateful to have had the wonderful privilege of serving the precious people of Calvary Chapel Estancia Valley for 16 years before being called to hand over the responsibility and privilege of the role of Senior Pastor to Cris Reynaga in September 2025. Mike and his family are now serving the people of Calvary Chapel East in Albuquerque, New Mexico where he is currently the Senior Pastor.
