The Kimba Uniting Church is part of the Presbytery of Wimala and the Uniting Church Synod of South Australia. The present church building was opened on 29/9/1991 by the Rev John Maddern, and replaced an earlier structure erected for the Methodist Church, and opened on 7/11/1924. A hall was added later and opened on 18/6/1954. Before the Methodist building was opened services had been conducted in a wood and iron structure opened on 15/10/1919.The church held the 30th anniversary of the opening of the new church building on 26/9/2021. More historical information/photographs of the church/congregation are invited. Photographs uploaded 9/3/2024.
