Comments

The earliest Presbyterian church services in Finley were held at Tuppal Station and conducted by the Minister from Deniliquin. The foundation stone for the church building was laid on 29/10/1919. It was opened jointly by Mrs J T Close and Miss Christina McAllister,  by opening the two front doors at the same time in March 1920. The official openeing and dedecation was held on 6/8/1920 with the Rev C H Hain, officiating.

The building was also used for a period by a Methodist congregation, until they had erected their own church building.

Weekly services ceased in April 2015.

More historical information/photographs of the church/congregation are invited. Photograph uploaded 27/1/2018.
