Pastor Valentino and Jennifer Pacheco moved to Albuquerque, New Mexico from Orange County, California with a dream to start Elevate Ministries. It started seven years ago when they were driving down one of the toughest area's in Albuquerque when God put it in their hearts to plant a church in New Mexico. Valentino and Jennifer were moved for the lost and hurting. They started doing outreaches and bible studies in their home. In January 2018, Restoration Church opened for service in a lobby of a school. In 2020, they found a new building and renamed the church to Elevate Ministries. They have a heart for God and people, and would love to have coffee with you! Elevate believes God’s Word, which declares that once a person surrenders their life to Christ a brand new life begins. The founding vision is to win one person for Christ and through personal relationship develop them into followers of Jesus, so that they would reach others for the Kingdom of God. We firmly believe that every believer is important in the God’s plan of redemption.
