St. Paul's College in St. Paul Park, organized in 1889 offered both a preparatory and collegiate course. St. Paul's was organized and supported by the Northern German Conference of the Methodist Episcopal Church. This conference included German Methodist congregation in Minnesota plus some in Wisconsin and North Dakota. The school operated until 1917, closing under financial difficulties and the stress of being a German-speaking institution during World War I. Supporters were encouraged to shift allegiance to Hamline University.

Attendees of the Young People's Alliance, District Convention at the Sleepy Eye Evangelical Church pose in front of the church on the lawn. This movement won approval of the General Conference in 1891. It was the organization which had been designed to bring unification among the young people of the Church, as well as to consolidate the numerous Jugend-Bunds (Youth Leagues) which had formed in Evangelical Association congregations throughout the country. As a youth society, its purpose was the promotion of intellectual, religious, and social culture and to train young people in Christian living and for service in the Church. It served to fill the gap between the Sunday School and the Church.
