ABOUT GRACE COMMUNITY CHURCH
Grace Community Church is a thriving, non-denominational congregation in Roswell, New Mexico with a singular mission: helping people find and fulfill God’s purpose for their lives. Planted in 1998, Grace has grown from 90 people in a living room to nearly 1,000 in weekend attendance. They have grown by 27% in the last two years with 63 baptisms and 100 new members in 2025 alone.
Grace is built around five core purposes, Grow, Reach, Adore, Connect, and Equip, and every ministry, budget decision, and calendar event flows from those five words. The staff team is unified, deeply relational, and the kind of people who drop everything when a teammate needs help. Grace’s global mission heart is expressed through their partnership with New Vision Latin America Missions, supporting church planting across Venezuela, Panama, Brazil, and Spain. This church has always had its eyes on the Spanish-speaking world.

ABOUT GRACE ESPAÑOL
Grace Español is Grace Community Church’s Spanish-language congregation, now in its third year and averaging 60–75 adults on Sundays. Grace is one church with two languages, united in mission, vision, and leadership. Grace Español is still in a season of formation, which means the pastor who steps into this role has real freedom to build, shape, and lead a congregation from its early years with the full support of a healthy, established church behind them. The groundwork has been laid. What is needed now is the right pastor to take it forward.
ABOUT ROSWELL, NEW MEXICO
Roswell is not what most people expect. It is a city of 47,000 in the high desert of southeastern New Mexico where over 60% of residents identify as Hispanic or Latino. Spanish is woven into the fabric of everyday life here, shaped by generations of families who built their lives in the Pecos Valley. The dairy farms, ranches, and agricultural operations of Chaves County draw workers and families from across Latin America, many of them deeply spiritual and needing a gospel-centered church that can reach them in their heart language. The mission field here is here. It is your neighborhood.
Beyond the ministry opportunity, Roswell is a genuinely great place to live. The cost of living is well below national averages, housing is affordable, and the pace of life allows for the kind of deep, unhurried relationships that make ministry possible and life meaningful. Bottomless Lakes State Park, the Pecos River, Carlsbad Caverns, White Sands National Park, and the mountain resort town of Ruidoso are all within two hours. It is a place where you can raise your family, know your neighbors, and plant your life with confidence.
THE ROLE
