Comments

The St Savvas of Kalymnos Orthodox Church, Banksia was started end of 2014. Formerly under the Orthodox Church of Ukraine, it is now a Canonical Church in Sydney under the Greek Orthodox Archdiocese - Ecumenical Patriarchate.

Their present church building was acquired from the Banksia Free Church on 31/7/2017. The building had been erected about 1890 for a group of former members who broke from the St Paul's Church of England, Kogarah.1  More historical information/photographs of the church(es)/congregation(s) are invited. Photographs uploaded 30/6/2020.
