There will also be containers of fresh Christmas cookies for sale. We hope you can join us! Proceeds from the concert will go to the Restore

Sunday School is Back!
United Protestant Church re-started a Sunday School program this fall. The main teachers are Mr. Bob Berg (retired teacher from Stowe) and Mrs. Collette Illy. Sunday School meets from 10:30 a.m. to 11:30 a.m. every Sunday and youth from age 4 to 10 years are invited to participate. Youth attend the Worship Service with their family for the first 15 minutes and after a “children's message” by the pastor, they go to the social hall for Sunday School. If you have a child who would like to attend, please call the church office (218-626-2570) to sign them up. Please fill out the Registration Form and send with them the first time they attend Sunday School. We hope lots of kids will join the fun!
