The St Andrew's Uniting Church Leongatha, is part of the Presbytery of Gippsland and the Uniting Church Synod of Victoria & Tasmania. It also functions as the Parish of Leongatha. The original church building on the site was erected for the Presbyterian Church, and opened on 28/4/1901 by Rev Prof M McDonald of Ormond College. The building was relocated on the site to make way for the present church building erected about 1965. No other details are known. More historical information/photographs of the church/congregation are invited. Photographs uploaded 6/2/2018.
