St. Andrew Church was a church located in Killisnoo, Alaska that was founded by the Russian Orthodox Church as they evangelized Alaska. In 1928, the church, along with most of the village, burned down, and most of the residents decided to relocate to other villages. As a result, rather than rebuilding St. Andrew, a new church, [[St._John_the_Baptist__John_the_Baptist_Church (Angoon,_Alaska)|St. John the Baptist]], was built in the nearby village of Angoon.
