The Grace Protestant Episcopal Church is a historic church building in Red Cloud, Nebraska. It was built in 1884, and designed in the Gothic Revival architectural style. ^[2] Reverend Mr Crockett oversaw its construction, and the building was moved to its current location in 1891. ^[2] In 1922, author Willa Cather stopped attending the First Baptist Church and began attending this church. ^[2] When the Munich-style stained glass was added in the 1930s, Cather dedicated a window to her mother and another one to her father. ^[2] The building has been listed on the National Register of Historic Places since February 11, 1982. ^[1]
