I’m sorry I won’t be in Anchorage this Christmas Eve to celebrate the birth of Christ as in years past. However, a Google search reveals there are many great service choices to select from. Using the search terms: christmas eve church services anchorage 2010 I located many great service selections.
Page 1 & 2 of these search results highlighted the following churches offering Christmas Eve services:
-Christian Church of Anchorage
-Brother Francis Shelter
-ChangePoint
-Cornerstone
-Central Lutheran
-City Church
-Trinity Presbyterian
-St. John United Methodist
-St. Mary’s Episcopal
-Muldoon Community Assembly
-Shiloh Missionary Baptish
I show only page 1 & 2 highlights because most searchers tend to look at the first couple of pages of a search. If a churches’ Christmas Eve offerings are not displayed, it’s often because they are not following solid Search Engine Optimization (SEO) rules and are overlooked.
If you substitute the name of a specific church in the search phrase, as shown below, you can find if services at a favorite church are being offered.

Anchorage Baptist Temple (ABT) did not show up first choice on this search but did occupy positions 2, 3 & 4. However, these listings were not clear “at-a-glance” listings, but PDF’s that proved to be problematic for Google. Previously I’ve commented that ABT’s website is a confusing display of information and this search validates this comment. Otherwise, as Alaska’s second largest church, they’d appear in the pages 1 & 2 listings noted earlier.
Nonetheless, I wish each of you a blessed Christmas Eve service and a Merry Christmas!
