Utqiaġvik Presbyterian Church

About this church

Utqiaġvik Presbyterian Church is a Presbyterian congregation at 1265 Agvik Street in Utqiaġvik. Sunday worship meets at 11 a.m. and 7:30 p.m., with a Wednesday service at 7:30. The Sunday morning service is also available through the church's YouTube channel and website, while both Sunday hours are carried on local KBRW radio. The church describes itself as an informal family where all are welcome, an important practical cue for visitors arriving in the northernmost community in the United States.

Presbyterian ministry in the area is intertwined with local history and public life. The church's historical material recalls the arrival of physician-pastor Henry Greist and his nurse wife in 1921 to lead a new hospital, and connects that institution to future North Slope leader Eben Hopson. Current ministry pages and events list women's Bible study, fellowship, prayer, and community activities alongside worship. Multiple broadcast options make the congregation accessible during weather, travel, or mobility constraints, but online visitors should distinguish the 11 a.m. video stream from the radio schedule that also includes evening worship. For an in-person first visit, either Sunday service or the Wednesday evening gathering provides a clearly published entry point.
