Pastor Joseph Gros met his wife Dea at a youth Bible study in 1981. They began attending Calvary Chapel of Albuquerque and were married in 1982.
One year later, they went on a six-month missions trip with YWAM. Upon returning, they got involved with Calvary Chapel of Albuquerque. Joseph became a kinship leader, where taught Bible studies and led small group discussions. It was during that period that he recognized God’s call on his life to pastor.
In 1992, Joseph, Dea, and their sons Jaired and Jeriah moved to New York to serve as assistant Director of the Persecuted Church Commission, a small missions organization helping the persecuted church in Eastern Europe.
After serving for a year, they felt God’s leading to move back to New Mexico to plant a church. God led them to Silver City, where they began a Bible study in February of 1993.
Since moving to Silver City, God has blessed Joseph and Dea with two beautiful daughters, Aujenae and Ariana. The church has seen steady growth and God’s hand of blessing upon it.
Pastor Joseph gives God thanks and all the credit. He feels privileged and humbled to serve and pastor God’s fold in Silver City, New Mexico.
Adan was born and raised in Silver City, New Mexico in 1983. His life did not follow the path he once expected; he believes God had a different story to write.
In 2001 he met Michelle and her young daughter, Gabby. They were young and building a life together before they had everything figured out. In 2002 they welcomed their daughter Haley, and in 2005 Adan and Michelle were married. Later their son, Adan, was born, and in 2010 they welcomed their youngest daughter, Emma. Family has always been one of his greatest blessings.
Adan gave his life to Christ in February 2003. While he knew God had a calling on his life, there were many years when he did not walk in obedience. He drifted from the Lord and chose a life far from what God had planned for him. Looking back, he sees God’s faithfulness even in the seasons when he was not faithful.
In the spring of 2020 his world was turned upside down as his marriage hit rock bottom and he faced hard truths. Through God’s grace, mercy, and restoration, healing began. What the enemy meant for destruction, the Lord used for redemption. Through forgiveness, surrender, and God’s unfailing love, their marriage was restored.
As Adan and Michelle walked through restoration together, God began opening doors for ministry. Today they help lead the couples ministry at Calvary Chapel. Walking alongside couples and helping marriages grow stronger in Christ has become deeply important to them because they know firsthand the power of God’s redemption.
In January 2026 Adan answered God’s call into ministry and stepped into the role of Assistant Pastor at Calvary Chapel. His heart is to serve faithfully, teach God’s Word, and encourage others to know that no one is beyond the reach of God’s grace. If God can restore his life and marriage, He can restore anything.
Jarrod was born in raised in Pratt, KS. Raised in a strong Christian home, he gave his life to the Lord at an early age.

Jarrod has served on the Calvary Chapel Silver City Board of Directors, on and off, for the last 20 years, and as an elder and assistant pastor since 2025. Jarrod and his lovely wife Amy have been married since 2011, and have 4 children.
Pastor Tim Madrid grew up in Silver City, NM, and attended Calvary Chapel Silver City since his youth. As a young adult he attended WNMU and received his bachelor’s in criminal justice. After graduating college, Tim was ready for a change and ended up moving to California in 2015. It was there he met his wife, Kailee, and where they are raising their children, Jack and Ella.
Tim and his family spent seven years in Orange County, CA, drawing closer to the Lord and getting involved in Children's Ministry. Tim felt God was calling both him and his wife to work in children and youth ministries back home and moved his family to Silver City in 2022. Since 2024, Tim has enjoyed being a teacher at Calvary Christian Academy and being the youth pastor. Both Tim and his wife are the student ministries directors and find so much joy in working with the amazing youth of CCSC. God has been so faithful and blessed Tim and his family to continue to work with such wonderful students and it has been such an honor and privilege for Tim and his wife to serve in the ministry God has led them too.
