Anglican services prior to 1931 were held in the Maleny Community Centre in Maple Street.
In 1931 the parishioners purchased the Soldiers Memorial Church at Glasshouse. This wooden church was dismantled and transported piece by piece and erected in Bunya Street. It was then consecrated by Archbishop Sharp on 6/9/1931.
Land was purchased at the corner of Tallowwood Street and Walker's Drive in the early 1990's for the erection of a brick church. This new church was dedicated on 5/12/1993.
