Most "protestant",evangelical,fundamentalists,pentecostal,etc{Bible believing christians} celebrate Christmas and Easter.We dont really call them "feasts" but rather they're days in which special emphasis is placed on the Birth,Death,Resurrection of our Lord Jesus Christ.Preaching the Word of God is the main focus of our Church services, while some churches celebrate Holy Communion every week others do not.During these special times{and throughout the year actually}we sing many Hymns,Spiritual songs,etc dealing with the Life,Death,Resurrection of Jesus Christ etc.

Some churches have times of "testimony" during a service where people can stand up and share what God has done in their life i.e. miracles,healings,etc.
Churches who believe in the Gifts of Holy Spirit{that they still operate today}allow phrophesying,speaking in tongues,interpretations of tongues,words of knowledge etc.
Some churches allow prayer for the sick,laying on of hands,etc during church service.


Almost all "protestant",evangelical churches are agreed on the essientials of the Faith i.e. The Virgin Birth,the life and Death of Jesus Christ,the resurrection,the ascension,the 2nd Coming,the Diety of Jesus,the Trinity,salvation by Grace through Faith,the need for christians to be fruitful producing good works in obedience to the command of our God,to be pure,moral, and obedient to the Gospel.We disagree on many lesser issues but agree to disagree in the spirit of love and tolerance,not forcing our views on anyone,etc.

Though there are always exceptions to what I've stated.I hope that helps you understand"protestants" a little better.There seems to be quite a bit of misunderstanding on what exactly catholics and "protestants" believe. :)
