Ervik Church (Norwegian: Ervik kyrkje) is a parish church in Selje Municipality in Sogn og Fjordane county, Norway. It is located in the village of Ervika at the northern end of the Stadlandet peninsula. The church is part of the Ervik parish in the Nordfjord deanery in the Diocese of Bjørgvin. The church is the location to a memorial to those killed during the sinking of the SS Sanct Svithun during World War II.

The white, brick church was built in 1970 at the historic location of the Ervik graveyard which has been in existence since before 1550. The church was designed by Arnstein Arneberg and it seats about 180 people. The church was originally established as a chapel annex, but in 1997 it was upgraded to a full parish church.
