About Us

Cristeros is an initiative of Aequitas, a non-profit based in Gallup, New Mexico bringing the True, the Good, and the Beautiful to all.

We are dedicated to building a movement of faithful Catholic men that work together to embrace a spirituality centered on pursuit of Christ through Mary, and to building a Catholic culture in their home, work, and community.

Why Cristeros?

Cristeros takes its name from the Catholics in Mexico (1926–1929) who held fast to Christ and His Church under intense pressure from the Communist Mexican government.

We don’t romanticize conflict; we honor their faithfulness, and we aim to live it today in our homes, our work, and our parishes.
