We are a Uniting Church congregation created, in the late 1970s and early 1980s, by the coming together of the Congregational, Presbyterian and Methodist congregations in the Albany area.
The Uniting Church in Albany region consists of five congregations, committed to promoting Jesus Christ within our homes, in our community and throughout the world.
