The first wooden church building, erected on the corner of Bridge Street (now Hudson Road) and Moore Steet, was dedicated by Bishop Dawes in May 1888. The building was moved to the present church site and formally opened by Bishop Webber, after renovations on 4/8/1899. The current brick building was dedicated by Rt Rev R J Hudson, Coadjutor of Brisbane on 31/5/1964, and consecrated by him on 26/4/1970. More historical information/photographs of the church/congregation are invited. Photographs uploaded1/3/2017.
