Flathead Valley churches honor Christmas season

The children of First Presbyterian Church in Kalispell every December decorate a Christmas tree in the church’s sanctuary. 

The around 9-foot tree gifted to the church by an attendee boasts more ornaments and red ribbon thrown around like tulle on its bottom half than its top. It’s a testament to the little arms who carefully placed each ornament on various limbs.  

Behind the tree sits a series of handcrafted backdrops, a historical look at winter in Kalispell throughout the years, featuring a snowy Elrod Elementary School and an 1891 snapshot of First Presbyterian, when the church was founded.
