We’re a Bible-based Baptist church in the beautiful city of Palmer, Alaska. Join us every Sunday at 10:30am in-person or online for a faith-filled, Bible-centered worship service! From a warm atmosphere to praise filled worship, to a Bible-based and Christ-centered sermon, you’ll always feel at home.

Serving the Palmer Community since 1951

Since 1951, our focus has been on engaging with our local community to share the Good News of Jesus with all those we encounter. Our mission is to guide individuals and families to embrace a deep commitment to following Jesus Christ and spreading God’s love. If you are seeking a place where you can learn, grow, and be transformed by the teachings of God’s Word, then praise the Lord – you have found the right place!

One Week That Changed the World

Events have happened in history that have changed the world. The shot heard around the world. A day which will live in infamy. That’s one small step for a man, one giant leap for mankind. Those events, those phrases, are destined to live through human history.

There was another event that has forever changed the world. Unto you is born this day in the city of David a Savior who is Christ the Lord. Jesus changed history and eternity. The Bible records in the four gospels what we call Passion Week. It tells of final events in the completion of Jesus physical life. That week will forever impact human history and eternity.

This Sunday, we’re beginning a sermon series of specific events in that week. We’ll look at the Triumphant Entry into Jerusalem, the Cleansing of The Temple, The Anointing at Bethany, The Garden of Gethsemane, and The Resurrection. We hope you’ll be here each Sunday and Good Friday through Easter to embrace the truths of One Week That Changed The World.

Friendship Park

A place for the community to gather and play!

As part of our mission to lead families to be fully devoted followers of Christ, we have established a playground, walking track, and open field for people to fellowship, play, and enjoy the outdoors.

Coming this summer

We are expanding the Friendship Park playground to include a swingset in addition to our already standing slides. A mission team from the lower 48 will be visiting in the early summer to help assemble the swingset.
