Scandinavian Methodist Church is a historic Methodist church at 203 Fifth Avenue West Kalispell, Montana.

It was started in 1896 in a Late Gothic Revival style and was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1994.[1]

It was described in its NRHP nomination as "a good example of an early church in Kalispell with relatively simple details; almost all of the original wood frame churches have been demolished and replaced." It is a one-story wood building with one-over-one double-hung windows with pointed transoms. It had a steeple at its northwest corner which was removed sometime after 1955. It has clapboard siding and it has diamond and fishscale wood shingles in its gable ends. A rear wing was added sometime between 1903 and 1910; the north end of that rear wing had a wrap-around porch which was enclosed by 1955.[2]
