Comments
The Weetulta Uniting Church is part of the Wimala Presbytery and the Uniting Church Synod of South Australia. The present church building was erected after Union, and the formation of the Methodist Church in 1900, and was opened in 1906. The addition at the rear of the building was added in 1922. Prior to the opening of the new building, services were held in a hall purchased by the Wesleyan Methodist Church from the Baptist Church in 1887. The Baptists had built it in 1884. From 1887 the hall was also used by the Education Department as a school until 1906, after which it became the Weetulta public hall. The church celebrated its golden jubilee in 1937. No other details are known. More historical information/photographs of the church/congregation are invited. Photographs uploaded 14/3/2025.
