It is one of the churches for the Alta parish which is part of the Alta prosti (deanery) in the Diocese of Nord-Hålogaland.

History
The people of the Elvebakken area of Alta began pushing for their own local church in 1911. They had been advocating moving the Kåfjord Church to Elvebakken when the copper plant closed. After World War I, people raised money to build a church in Elvebakken, but the banking crisis led to the money collected being lost when the Hammerfest Sparekasse bank failed. Then again in 1937, work to raise money began again. The church was consecrated on 23 August 1964 by the local provost Englund.[3]
