Sadie McCoy Crank, born Sarah Catherine McCoy, (August 15, 1863 – September 20, 1948) was one of the earliest ordained (1892) female preachers in the Stone-Campbell Movement and an organizer for the Illinois Woman's Christian Temperance Union. This is notable because around this time a vigorous debate about the role of women as preachers was taking place in religious periodicals like the Gospel Advocate, Christian Standard, and Christian-Evangelist.
