Most of Dewey’s ministry has been in Albuquerque. He was the organizing pastor of Cristo del Valle, a congregation who a few years ago turned their facility over to Camino de Vida.He taught math and religion at The Menaul School and was once the Part-time Pre-Organizing Pastor of the Far Northeast Heights Presbyterian New Church Development - say that several times as fast as you can - which then became Sandia Presbyterian Church.
Dewey has been involved in the Albuquerque community for many years. As a pastor he brought medical services to the South Valley by convincing Lovelace to begin its Rio Bravo Clinic.
