Like several Presbyterian congregations scattered through the villages of northern New Mexico, Las Placitas Presbyterian Church was founded as an Hispanic mission in the late 19th century. Over the last generation a number of these churches, including LPPC, have developed into gathering places reflecting the evolving diversity of our communities. Las Placitas congregation today includes descendants of the original village families, free-spirited folks who came to the mountain in the late 60s and early 70s, and recent transplants into the various Placitas subdivisions—as well as near neighbors from Bernalillo, Algodones, Rio Rancho, and Albuquerque. Someone recently remarked that the homogeneity of Las Placitas church is found in our embrace of our non-homogeneity. Our mission statement affirms: LPPC is an inclusive community . . . welcoming and supporting all people as they explore their personal life paths. As we move into the season of Thanksgiving, and on toward Christmas, ALL are welcome to come share the journey with us.

Placitas is located 20 miles northeast of Albuquerque at an altitude of 6,000 feet. The village sits at the base of the Sandia mountains and has many vineyards, gardens and small orchards which are watered from mountain springs through acequias madres (mother ditches) built long ago. It is suspected that the village is built on Anasazi ruins.
