Comments
The Strathfield Uniting Church is one of the two worship centres, of the Strathfield Homebush Uniting Church, the other one is in Homebush. The church is part of the Sydney Presbytery and the Uniting Church Synod of NSW & ACT. The Strathfield church had its beginnings in a meeting held on 2/7/1907. The current site was purchased shortly thereafter in August 1907. The church building was opened by His Excellency the Governor of NSW, Sir Harry Rawson, RN. GCMG on 11/4/19081. The church celebrated its centenary in 2018. The Hungarian Reformed Church also uses the property. More historical information/photographs of the church/congregation are invited. Photographs uploaded 17/11/2016 & 6/2/2023
