St Stephen Uniting Church Sydney


Australia - Adelaide - Brisbane - Alice Springs - Cairns - Canberra - Darwin - Gold Coast - Hobart - Melbourne - Newcastle - Perth - Port Douglas - Launceston - Sydney - Townsville
What started as a small congregation has really taken shape in to a wonderful place of worship; the church was originally located on the other side of rocks and was reduced to ashes towards the end of the nineteenth century.
During the period of gold rush the congregation that started off in a nascent form in the Macquarie place imported for itself a prefabricated church which was made of Iron and could accommodate eight hundred people.
This was put up on a place next to the parliament house on the site on which the State Library used to be there. It was in this place that the name of St Stephens was adopted as the West Minister Parliament met in the Chapel for nearly three hundred years and over the years the place has assumed enormous importance and the congregation attracts a large number which is increasing with every passing year.
The church has a distinct Gothic Revivalist feel to the entire architecture and houses one of the best patterned ceilings in the whole of Australia. The place is also renowned for a traditional congregation bundled with a person who can play the organ better than most in the whole continent.
The church is fully functional and regular services are held in the church which attracts a large congregation on a consistent basis. A service is held every Sunday and afternoon devotions are also arranged on first and third Sunday of the month. There is a provision for a mid week service on Wednesday also.
The church is also an excellent place to tie the nuptial knot as it doesn't discriminate on church affiliations or previous marital experiences. The church also has a conservation management plans which can be viewed by visiting the church office during the normal business hours of the church.
