Welcome to Ulverston Parish Church
Hello,
We are

Whether you are new to Ulverston or new to faith, simply curious or a life-long follower of Jesus, we would love to welcome you to UPC!
There are a number of opportunities for you to join with us during the week for a time to worship and pray together.
REAL
LIFE
REAL
LOVE
Our vision at UPC and St John’s is to be a vibrant and growing church that exists to bring Ulverston to life. We seek to achieve this by being people with Jesus at the centre, guided by God’s Word and Spirit, living out resurrection life – the kind of life Jesus lived. We want everyone in our town and surrounding area to know and experience the love of God, and see ourselves as ‘a movement not a monument’; alive and active, living our faith, growing in our relationship with God and serving our community. The church family itself is diverse and multigenerational, loving and supporting each other through life’s joys and challenges.
