History

  • Serving Hinsdale Since 1955

    Union Church created a preschool program in 1955 as part of its community outreach…

    Over the years, we have grown into the Union Church Early Childhood Programs, which offer programming for children ages 6 weeks to 6 years. UCECP and the Union Church of Hinsdale have a shared mission to minister to the needs of the whole human family within our congregation, our community, our nation, and the world.

    The UCECP operates within the Union Church’s modern education wing and fulfills one of the church’s many missions.
