A Brief History
The Warragul Methodist and Presbyterian Churches joined together to form the Warragul Uniting Church in June 1977.
While the congregation initially held worship services in the Methodist Church, in 1996 it was agreed to move all church activities to the St. Andrew’s (previously Presbyterian) Church site on the opposite corner. The sale of the Wesley (Methodist) property was finalised in early 2004.
Ageing infrastructure, car parking pressures and the need for safer spaces, especially for children, led to a vision for a new Worship and Mission Centre. Land was purchased at 210 Sutton Street, Warragul, and modern designs were drawn up. When the St. Andrew’s property was sold, the congregation was able to continue meeting at that site while the new Church was being built.
The final worship service at St Andrew's was held on Sunday 18 June 2006. The congregation celebrated their first service of worship in the Sutton Street building the following Sunday, 25 June 2006.
