True North Baptist Church

True North Baptist Church exists to glorify God by building mature and active followers of Jesus Christ within the community of North Pole, Alaska and on Eielson Air Force Base.

This new Church was planted in the spring of 2016 as an outreach of Badger Road Baptist Church, located in Fairbanks, Alaska. Initially, three families transplanted for the purpose of ongoing leadership and ministry.

The new Church began meeting together in the North Pole Grange Hall while searching for a ideal permanent location. In 2017 the Church was blessed through the purchase of a new property located at 3555 Laurance Road near the busy Richardson Highway.

True North Baptist Church continues to rely on God's guidance and provision for growth and successful ministry.

True North Baptist Church’s ministry is guided by and modeled after the New Testament example of a scriptural local church. Our purpose and passion centers around active discipleship and Biblical leader development. True North Baptist Church seeks to faithfully equip believers as they carry the gospel of Jesus Christ out into the world.

True North Baptist actively prepares believers for evangelism and ministry through preaching & teaching, small group instruction, accountability and mentorship throughout the week.

TNBC is focused on the growth of all believers and offers family integrated services. We also conduct small group discipleship on Sunday afternoons and throughout the week.

“For the perfecting of the saints, for the work of the ministry, for the edifying of the body of Christ.”

Ephesians 4:12
