The United Parish of Upton Together 1970, Everywhere 2024
We are an ONA/Reconciling center for community, growing spiritual character and religious integrity.
This Church is More Than a Website
We’re united by our passion for hospitality—we like to bring people together, sharing spiritual and physical food with people of all ages, and that’s why we developed this website. Inspired by the pandemic, we still wanted to be who we are—and we have never limited our ministry to our membership. If you request to join using the link above, you will find all the news about our ministries, and all the resources for joining in: links, polls, calendars, prayer requests, videos and pics.

The great 50 days of Easter
On March 31st we began the season of Easter, which is 50 days long. 50 days of celebrating resurrection and new life. 50 days of focus on hope and future. We will be contemplating so many beginnings as spring comes in full force. We will experience endings as the school year draws to a close.
At the beginning of Lent, we planted seeds. If your marigold blooms at any time during the Easter season, bring it into worship so we can all share in the delight of the flowers. This Easter season will culminate on May 19th with Pentecost – the birthday of the Church.
Join us at 9:30 on Sunday morning for worship in the sanctuary or livestream worship via YouTube.
We gather in the Soul Fuel Cafe for fellowship following the service. All Are Welcome!
