St. Paul United Church of Christ Rally Day Celebration

St. Paul United Church of Christ (UCC), Palatine, is encouraging families to celebrate “Rally Day,” scheduled to begin at 10 a.m., Sunday, September 8.

The annual event represents an opportunity for families to renew and strengthen their faith.  It also  coincides with the beginning of the school year and draws attention to the importance of families, the building blocks of our community.   The church also returns to 10 a.m. worship service, which is one hour later than services held during the summer.

In celebration of the event, St. Paul will observe communion and include a program that is very welcoming for families, including children of all ages.
