First Christian Church in Las Cruces, New Mexico, is actively reclaiming Christianity as an inclusive, expansive, and loving spiritual pathway.

We are an open and affirming church community. In Christ’s example, we offer all people—regardless of race, creed, gender, gender identity, or sexual orientation—the opportunity to discover and develop their gifts in God’s love.

Our church family celebrates diversity and freedom, and engages in social justice. Get updates by joining our mailing list, liking us on Facebook, or following us on Twitter.

Our worship centers on the table of the Lord’s Supper. At our table, there is room for everyone. We, as disciples, find ways to worship, work, study, and make fellowship together while honoring Christ’s prayer for us—’that they may all be one’ (John 17:21).

If you would like to submit a prayer request to be read in our Sunday Worship, please submit it here by Saturday evening. If you would like to submit a private prayer request or ask for support from Pastor Bethany, you can email her at bmeier@fcclc.org.

Effective July 11, we have returned to a hybrid, on-site worship.  While we are now worshiping on site, we are being cautious to protect our most vulnerable members. We currently require everyone to wear masks while indoors, we ask that families socially distance from other families, and we ask that only the music leaders sing at this time. Our communion is currently in single serving packets that can be picked up in our atrium. 

If you prefer to join us virtually for our 10:15 AM Sunday morning Zoom worship service, you can do so by going to the “Worship” tab at the top of this page. If you would like to see a video of the sermon after the worship service has ended, check out our Facebook page. 

We invite you to join us!
