Welcome to
Ulverston Parish Church
Hello!
My name is
Alan Bing
and I’m the Vicar of UPC. Thank you for visiting us.
Our vision is to be the kind of church where we can encounter God, learn how to follow Jesus together, and make a positive difference to our community and the world we live in.
I hope you can find what you’re looking for, but if you have any questions, please get in touch.
We hope to see you soon.

It’s one thing to read about a church, but another to experience it for yourself. We’d love you to come along to one of our services to see whether UPC is somewhere you could call home.
SERVICES AT THE PARISH CHURCH

Sunday 8:30 Holy Communion/Morning Prayer
A quieter, more traditional service with space for reflection and prayer. This service alternates between Morning Prayer on the first and third Sundays and Holy Communion on the second, fourth and fifth Sundays.
Sunday 10:30 Family Service
A great service for our church family, guests and visitors, with a mix of modern and traditional worship and relevant Bible teaching. If you have children, we have lots for them to do, just ask a member of our welcome team for more information about the children’s groups.
Sunday 18:30 Café Church
More informal than a normal church service. Expect a warm welcome, good coffee and cake, as well as modern worship, interactive teaching and prayer.

Communion with a hymn and a short talk, with refreshments afterwards. The third Thursday of each month is a healing service where you can receive prayer for healing.
