Eric Cartier

Senior Pastor (EricC@RMCalvary.org)

I realized at a young age that the Lord was calling me to reach those without Christ. Through teachings at Applegate Christian Fellowship and Calvary Bible College, God began to equip me for a life of ministry. In March 2000, I accepted a permanent position with Rocky Mountain Calvary that grew into overseeing and ministering to both teenagers and young adults. After five years of service, I was offered the position of senior pastor. I believe the Lord’s house should be one of prayer and that the Bible should be taught verse-by-verse. This allows God’s Word to challenge and encourage us to walk in obedience. My desire is to lead by example, to be a disciple and make disciples, and to share God’s loving kindness. I have been married to my beautiful wife,  Amber, for 20+ years and we have four children, Hannah, Adelyn, Ileanne and Wyatt.

I have felt the Lord calling me into greater service for Him from a young age. Stepping out in faith in 2005 my family and I planted a church and continued in the work of ministry for 10 years. Following God’s leading has given me opportunities to grow in the gifts and talents that He has given to me, which has led me to my current responsibilities here at Rocky Mountain Calvary. I am truly blessed to serve Him and His people. I have been married to my wife Shanda for over 20 years and we have four children; Grace, Faith, Seth, and Caleb.

After 23 years of living to create my own glory and pretending I was a Christian, God took hold of my life, replaced my heart of stone (Ezekiel 36:26-27), and showed me that I could not do it on my own. He is the only thing worth living for and I am so thankful He continuously pursues my heart, even in defiance.  While going through RMC’s School of Discipleship and School of Ministry, God placed it on my heart to seek and serve His people through any way He leads. It is my hope and prayer that I will continue to serve any way God desires alongside my wife, Naomi, and our two kids.

For most of my life my family has been really involved in Church and serving the Lord, but it wasn’t until I was in High School that God became real to me. After getting saved, I attended Oceans Edge School of Worship in Ft. Lauderdale, Florida and graduated in 2011. Since then I’ve been involved with a couple different churches leading worship in various capacities. I’m grateful and humbled at the opportunity the Lord has provided for my wife, Laura, and I to move to Colorado and be a part of what God is doing here at RMC.

RMC quickly became my family’s home church in 2016 after seeing the heart of the staff and volunteers. After attending the School of Discipleship and the School of Ministry here, God directed me to come on staff to serve with the pastors. I love being able to labor alongside my wife, Jenna. We have been blessed with 3 sons, 1 daughter, and 1 daughter-in-law.

I grew up in a Christian home and trusted in the Lord at an early age. I felt God calling me into a pastoral role from my early 20’s and was ordained in 2015. My family moved back to Colorado Springs and RMC in 2022, and I’ve enjoyed teaching in the School of Discipleship since then. I came on staff part-time in October 2025 in the role of Pastoral Care and Counseling. I’m convinced the Bible has the answers to our difficulties in marriage, parenting and all the other relationships and situations we find ourselves in! My wife Colleen and I have been married since 2002, and we have 7 children: Noah, Tahlia, Asher, Eliana, Jachin, Mattea, and Boaz!

I attended RMC’s School of Discipleship and School of Ministry. I started serving in the Junior High as a leader in 2010 and transitioned to the Senior High as of August 2021. The senior high years are crucial in a young person’s life, and I understand that we need to keep them on the narrow path walking with Jesus.  I am committed to building their faith and helping them to depend on the Word of God in this most important time in their lives.

I grew up at Rocky Mountain Calvary, and I first understood my need for a personal relationship with Jesus as a student in the Jr. High Ministry. I came on staff in the youth ministry in 2024, and my passion is to worship the Lord in all that I do, and to see all youth saved and changed by Jesus Christ the same way He has saved and changed me.

I became a part of RMC as a young adult shortly after the Lord got a hold of my heart and I realized that He is wholly worthy of my entire life and devotion. I began to pursue full time mission work, which led me to serve in Chihuahua, Mexico in 2018 and Cusco, Peru from 2019-2021. I was blessed to marry my wife during that time and we now have two lovely daughters.
God has given me a burden to equip the Young Adults of His church to be able navigate the many joys and challenges of early adult life through the teaching of the Word, a solid foundation in Christ, and biblical community!
