How it all started
Vista Grande Church began as a vibrant church plant of First Baptist Church Tijeras in 1999, fueled by a distinct vision to reach the communities along the picturesque Highway 14. Our journey started in the newly built Vista Grande Community Center as we acquired property on La Madera Road, laying the groundwork to build a facility devoted to serving our community.
Incorporating in 1999, Vista Grande Church purchased land across from East Mountain High School. After years of seeking God's guidance, we sold that land and embraced the opportunity to acquire over 7 acres on the east side of Highway 14 in Cedar Crest. This marked the beginning of a transformative journey to create a facility that would be a true home for the East Mountains and a heart for community connection.
Today, we gather at First Baptist Church Tijeras, embracing a prayerful anticipation of moving to our new facility. We are excited to share this space with our community and neighbors in the East Mountains, dedicated to serving and blessing everyone around us.
Where We are Headed
Vista Grande is committed to serving the East Mountain Communities of New Mexico through the proclamation of the Gospel, serving our neighbors, and laboring to bless our community by being a faith family that fosters fellowship through godly living.
VGC strives to be a healthy church that proclaims the Gospel, equips Disciples, and plants churches as God provides growth. Our prayer is to help plant and develop healthy churches in New Mexico and beyond.
