About Us.

Our History Qanemciput

Kuskokwim Community Church has a rich history of serving the Bethel community and the surrounding region. Formerly known as Bethel Community Assembly of God, the church has faithfully proclaimed the gospel, made disciples, and provided a place for people to encounter God for many years.

Following a pastoral transition, our church entered a season of prayer, reflection, and conversation. As we sought God's direction together, we recognized a growing desire to strengthen our connection to the people and communities of Western Alaska. The transition from Bethel Community AG to Kuskokwim Community Church reflects more than a name change - it reflects our commitment to following Christ together and serving the region God has called us to love.

Our Mission Piciryaraput

At Kuskokwim Community Church, our mission is simple: Following Christ Together. We believe that faith was never meant to be lived alone. As we worship, learn, serve, and share life with one another, we grow as followers of Jesus and help others do the same. Whether you are just beginning your faith journey or have been a believer for years, we invite you to join us as we grow in relationship with Christ together.

Our Vision Neryuniurun

Our vision is to see healthy, Christ-following communities established throughout Western Alaska through worship, discipleship, healing, and authentic relationships.
We believe the gospel transforms lives, relationships, villages, and generations, and we long to see every community experience the hope and life found in Jesus Christ.
