The Episcopal Church of All Angels is a historic church at 129 W. Michigan in Spearfish, South Dakota. It was built in 1895 and was added to the National Register in 1976.[1]

Before the building of the only Episcopal church in Spearfish, Episcopalian worshippers practiced in their homes. The great-granddaughter of Alexander Hamilton donated money for a church to be built as a tribute to her great-grandfather, although she never visited Spearfish. After the sandstone church as built in 1895, it was damaged on the interior by a fire, and Ms. Hamilton sent money to repair the church. Additionally, Ms. Hamilton sent Christmas gifts to children for Sunday school.[2]
