The Moab LDS Church is a historic church in Moab, Utah. It was built with adobe for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in 1888–1889, on land that belonged to Leonidas L. Crapo.[2] The local bishop, Randolph H. Stewart, had acquired the land in 1884, and he later sold it to his second counselor, Orlando W. Warner.[2] The church was designed in the Greek Revival style, and it was later stuccoed.[2] The building was deeded to the Grand County School District in 1925.[2] By 1937, the Daughters of Utah Pioneers began holding their meetings in the old church.[2] It has been listed on the National Register of Historic Places since November 28, 1980.[1]
