Liberty Baptist Church at Fifth & Christina Sts. in Kief, North Dakota was built in 1902. It included Late Gothic Revival architecture.

The church was the first "Stundist" church built in North America. It has a hipped roof that is similar in design to the roofs of pioneer homes built by Ukrainian immigrants to the upper Great Plains. [2]

The building was moved in 1936 to its current location. [2] It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1987. [1]
