Church Community

Our usual services

Come and join us

We gather for worship for about an hour, matching our informal liturgy with good humour and a casual, relaxed atmosphere. Our sermons, prayers and even the words of our hymns do not shy away from politics, economics and other current affairs.

Congregational members play a key role in design and participation, structured around the Revised Common Lectionary which is used across denominations and the world.

We usually celebrate communion on the first Sunday of the month. In keeping with the practice of the Uniting Church in welcoming all to the table, we use grape juice and offer both bread and a gluten-free option.

Following the service we have morning tea in the hall where lively discussion of the service and the message often takes place.

Accessibility

We have an internal stairlift as an alternative to the external steps. Just to the left of the front steps you will find a street-level entry door which takes you to the stairlift. Ring the bell next to the door for assistance.

Remote access: You are welcome to join us online or by phoning in to listen to the service. Click here to join us via Zoom, or phone 02 8015 6011 and enter the meeting ID 970 8990 9368. 

Fellowship and friendship

Social Group

Our social group meets every Wednesday, and alternates between the church hall and a local cafe. On the first and third Wednesdays of the month we meet we meet at 10am in the church hall for a cuppa and a chat. Jigsaw puzzles and board games are popular, and some members bring their knitting or other craft. Everyone brings their own lunch and we enjoy another cuppa before going home. On the second Wednesday of the month we meet up at 10am at Chill Cafe in Engadine town square (across from the Engadine Community Centre), and on the fourth Wednesday we go for lunch at midday to the Engadine Bowling Club. Everyone welcome: email us at admin@engadine.unitingchurch.org.au for more details.
