De Sint-Pancratiuskerk is een kerkgebouw in Widooie in de Belgische gemeente Tongeren in de provincie Limburg. De kerk ligt aan de Widooiestraat en aan de Sint-Pankraasstraat. Om de kerk ligt er een ommuurd kerkhof.

De Sint-Pancratiuskerk is waarschijnlijk omstreeks 1100 afgescheiden van de parochie van Haren. Het patronaatsrecht en tiendrecht was in bezit van het Onze-Lieve-Vrouwekapittel te Tongeren.

In de 12e eeuw bestond de kerk reeds. In 1205 werd er een rector vermeld.

In 1421 werd de kerk gerestaureerd.

Aan het eind van de 18e eeuw werd gemeld dat de kerk in bouwvallige staat was.

In 1845 bouwde men een nieuwe kerk naar het ontwerp van J. Dumont en onder leiding van architect Suys.

In 2014-2015 werd de kerk volledig gerestaureerd en werd de torenhaan teruggeplaatst
