The Christian Conservative Party (Spanish: Partido Conservador Cristiano, PCC) is a Chilean far-right political party. It was officially recognized by the Electoral Service of Chile (Servel) on 30 October 2020.

The origins of the party date back to 2001, when the "Águilas de Jesús" movement emerged at the University of Concepción in order to compete for political spaces in the university. Its members are Evangelicals and Protestants.[2]

In 2021 he formed the Christian Social Front coalition and supported the Republican Party presidential candidate, José Antonio Kast.[3]
