Comments
The present Eldorado Uniting Church was opened in 1914, on land donated by Mr William Ellis. The first Wesleyan services had been held at the eastern end of the El Dorado valley, using a tree stump as a pulpit. The first church building was of slab and bark, erected about 1868. A 100 year old building from Boorhaman was relocated to the church site and dedicated in 1965 as a Sunday School hall [Sourced from: http://eldorado.org.au/facilities/uniting-church/ ]. The church is part of the Presbytery of North Eastern Victoria and the Uniting Church Synod of Victoria & Tasmania. More historical information/photographs of the church/congregation are invited.
