HistoryIn 1961 a group of committed people formed a Unitarian Fellowship in the Copper Country in order to have a religious education program for their children, as well as to have a presence in the community. However, as the children grew up, the group dwindled and ultimately was dissolved in late 1969. In 1984, a group of committed religious liberals in the Copper Country came together and reestablished a fellowship. By the next year, they were recognized by the Unitarian Universalist Association as a member congregation and have continued to grow over the last three decades. We are certified as a Welcoming Congregation.SpecialtiesKeweenaw Unitarian Universalist Fellowship is an inclusive liberal religious community in Michigan's Upper Peninsula.
