About the Presbyterian Church of Cloquet

Our History

The Presbyterian Church of Cloquet was founded in 1883 and the new church building was dedicated on January 6, 1884. The original wood framed church was located on Avenue F and was eventually moved from Avenue F in 1904 to the current location on 4th Street.

The wooded structure was replaced by a brick church which was dedicated in 1916 and was destroyed in the great fire in 1918 when most of Cloquet was lost. The current church was built in 1919 and dedicated in 1920.

Worship Services

Worship Services are held every Sunday morning at 11 a.m., followed by a time of coffee, treats, and fellowship. We welcome all to join us.
