Welcome to Zuni Christian Reformed Mission…
For those of you who are unfamiliar with our work in Zuni, we invite you to catch a glimpse of how Zuni Christian Reformed Mission is, through the power of God’s Spirit, transforming the lives of people who live on the Zuni Reservation in northwestern New Mexico. If you have been connected with Zuni in the past, our website will help you become reacquainted and introduce you to the dynamic changes that are revitalizing the Mission’s 100-year witness to the Gospel in Zuni.
The Zuni Christian Mission is comprised of Zuni Christian Reformed Church (ZCRC) and Zuni Christian Mission School (ZCMS). The church and school work together to provide a vital outreach to the Zuni people from shared facilities located on a small compound in the heart of Zuni Pueblo. By God’s grace, what began in 1897 as pioneer mission work of the Christian Reformed denomination, has matured into a ministry that is governed by local boards of Zuni Christians—an unparalleled accomplishment in mission efforts among the Pueblo tribes of the Southwest.
So, welcome to our website. Whether you are a new friend or a lifelong partner, we trust that your journey through our web pages will stimulate greater levels of interest and involvement in God’s loving work in Zuni through committed prayer supporters, volunteers, and donors like you.
“What gives life to these bones of a church and a school? It is this—a vision that Zuni people, young and old, will be planted in Biblical truth and surrounded by God’s grace. In the mysterious ways of God, many people, here and beyond Zuni, have the privilege of participating in this calling.”
— Kathy Bosscher, Former Teacher/Principal and Current Volunteer (1990-2023)
It is our prayer and the prayer of the Christians who support our school that ZCMS graduates will understand truth, know the choices that truth requires, and, by God’s grace, choose faith…
