Looks like a presale leading up to black friday. I would assume that you'll probably find better deals closer too or on black friday.
However while taking a quick glance I did come across some Joyo Pedals that are a pretty good price right now; most of them are under $30.
These 2 stuck out in particular, as I've owned them in the past and they're pretty good quality pedals. Especially when considering the price point, they're well worth it.
Joyo Vintage Overdrive
Joyo Ultimate Drive
Try this: https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B004FEGXDK/ref=mp_s_a_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1469223619&sr=8-1&pi=SY200_QL40&keywords=joyo+vintage+overdrive&dpPl=1&dpID=41YfoJzac3L&ref=plSrch - sounds almost identical for less than half the price!
I just purchased a Joyo JF-01 for $16 dollars used off of amazon. The reviews looked pretty decent so I decided to give it a shot. Thanks for the input.
Yeah. I got mine off of smile.amazon, and I'll say I was pleasantly surprised by it when I added it to the signal chain. I had watched a few reviews on YouTube, and it was getting a really positive vibe about it, so I just pulled the trigger. Same thing with the Mini-Spark. Didn't go for the bigger Spark because I didn't really need much tweaking for a clean boost, and that saved me about $30 in going that route. Sometimes simpler is better.
Pretty sure Santana uses a Tubescreamer.
You can pick up a Joyo Vintage Overdrive - a pretty faithful clone of the Tubescreamer - for around $30 dollars here on Amazon.
Turn down the tone knob on your guitar a little bit. Try different pickup combinations - not sure if your guitar is a strat style or les paul style, but switch between them.
I think you'll get pretty close by turning up the mids a bit, keeping the bass low but not too low, and the treble medium with your tone knob down. Experiment! Use your ears, and trust them.
Santana is also going to get a lot of his "sound" from the way he plays the guitar - phrasing, pick attack, blah blah blah, so don't expect to be right on immediately. Keep practicing and you'll get there!
If it were me I would for sure get one overdrive pedal. At your level I would probably get a cheap clone like the Joyo Vintage Overdrive or Caline Pure Sky. You can use it to fatten up lead lines or solos. Many worship songs have a 'hook' part where you need to be heard.
For the second pedal I would consider a multi-effects like the Zoom G3 or G3X. I've used one for many years now. It is a fantastic jack of all trades type pedal. You can get an external tap tempo and use it as a very powerful delay and reverb pedal kind of like a Line 6 DL4. It has a tuner. It has a solid looper. You can use it as a recording interface at home. You can use it as an acoustic or bass DI. It has amp sims for recording or playing direct at church. I did a full review on mine here.
Then for your third pedal get whatever you want. Maybe another overdrive / distortion to provide a different flavor or level of gain. Maybe a modulation. Pitch shifting is pretty cool, I know a lot of guys that use a EHX POG variant a lot in worship. Maybe a dedicated reverb pedal for ambient swells. Lots of possibilities.
Total: $989,48
A few bucks left for a cable or a clip-on tuner.
I'd recommend checking out a Joyo Vintage Overdrive, they're $30 and there are tons of reviews online.
I own their Ultimate Overdrive and I think it's amazing, honestly I think it's one of the better pedal values out there right now.
Metal. True Bypass also. I just bought it off of Amazon

I wouldn't get either of those pedals.
Just get a basic delay pedal and a vintage-style overdrive pedal.
something like this for a bit of echo: https://www.amazon.com/Donner-Yellow-Fall-Vintage-Analog/dp/B00GRRN2RI/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1466494900&sr=8-1&keywords=analog+delay
and something like this for a bit of dirt: https://www.amazon.com/Joyo-JF-01-Vintage-Overdrive-Guitar/dp/B004FEGXDK/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1466494843&sr=8-1&keywords=joyo+overdrive

If you like the tube screamer, this is an amazing clone that is a fraction of the cost. I prefer this to a tube screamer.
Joyo Vintage Overdrive
If you're looking at a tubescreamer, check out the Joyo Vintage Overdrive. It's an inexpensive TS clone that sounds exactly the same as a Tubescreamer, in fact it has the original chip in it that many people say is better than the current Ibanez reissue.
