First Presbyterian Church is a historic church in Waurika, Oklahoma. It was built in 1908 and added to the National Register of Historic Places in 2002.[1]

It is a one-story brick building with a side tower. It featured green-painted wood shingles in its gable ends and on the tower. Wide, overhanging boxed eaves seem to be consistent with Prairie School style. It has fifty-six-over-one windows on the front, fifty-six-over-four windows on the side, and one-over-one windows on the back.[2]

It was designed by Amarillo, Texas architect J.C. Berry.[2]

When listed in 2001, the building was owned by the city of Waurika and had not operated as a church since the 1980s. [2]
