Grace Episcopal Church is a historic church at 1115 36th Street in Galveston, Texas. It was built in 1894 and added to the National Register in 1975.

History
The history of Grace Episcopal Church is traceable to a mission Sunday School founded by the Rectory of Trinity Church in Galveston, which was located for the convenience of suburban residents in the 1840s. In 1876, its members received permission from the rector to establish Grace Episcopal Church. Their first sanctuary was a wooden building at the corner of Avenue L and 36th Street.

Henry Rosenberg gifted $30,000 to Grace Episcopal Church for a new building. The church commissioned Nicholas J. Clayton to design a High Victorian Gothic church constructed of stone. The old building was moved down the street and the new building was completed in 1895.
