Join us at United Protestant Church in Morgan Park on Thursday, July 17 for a fun concert by the Two Harbors Ukulele Group – also known as T.H.U.G.!  The concert will begin at 6:00 p.m. The group is made up of folks from Two Harbors and the North Shore who love to play ukuleles and they love to share their joy of ukulele music! There is no ticket charge to attend, but there will be a free will offering during the concert. Light refreshments will be served following the music. Please call the church for accessibility options (218-626-2570). Hope you can join us at UP Church!

Coming up starting on Thursday, our annual rummage sale! We are still taking new and gently used donations through Wednesday. Call the office or contact Kathy to arrange drop off.

It’s already October! The Fall Gifts Market is coming up fast! We still have spaces available for crafters and vendors. Fill out the form on our website to register! Please don’t submit payment until after you receive confirmation that a space has been reserved for you, as spaces are limited.

Today is the first day of school for many children and teens in our area. As the summer starts to fade, here at UPC we’re looking ahead to fall.

This year the Halloween Carnival will once again be returning to the Fellowship Hall on October 27th. After several years in the St. Margaret Mary rec building and then a three year break, we restarted the carnival last year. It’s a return to the smaller space, but we like to think of it as cozy.  We’ll need several volunteers to help run the games, as well as set up and clean afterwards. Look for more information on that in the next several weeks. You can also rsvp on our Facebook event for updates and to be reminded when the carnival gets closer. 

One week later, on November 3rd, we’ll be hosting the Fall Craft Sale and Bazaar. This event was not held last year, but some new organizers are at the helm for 2018. We’re signing up vendors now and are taking only one exhibitor per company (only one exhibitor for Norwex will be accepted, for example).  There will food during the sale, as well as a raffle. You can rsvp for  that event on Facebook as well, to see updates and be reminded when the day draws closer. 

We hope you’ll consider joining us for one or both of these exciting events at U.P. Church!

It’s been a few years since we have been able to hold a Halloween Carnival. This year we are hoping to revive the tradition. With the closing of St. Margaret Mary’s Catholic Church, we will no longer be able to use their wonderful rec hall. As such, we are moving the carnival back to our own Fellowship Hall. We will be selling tickets for games, as well as food and drinks. Parents and kids of all ages welcome!
