Comments
The Bulli Anglican Church, is in the Parish of Bulli and the Diocese of Sydney. The church is an amalgamation of the St Augustine's Anglican Church, Bulli (this church) and the St Paul's Anglican Church, Woonona (which has now closed - see separate entry - 2517). St Augustine's grew from the impact on the faithful in the Northern Illawarra, who responded to the Bulli Tent Mission in 1877, and decided a new church should be established. St Augustine's was subsequently opened on 13/12/1882. Over the years the church has also successfully planted a number of churches in the local region. The need for greater church capacity in the 1980s led to the addition of new buildings and other development to meet the needs of the congregation. The church celebrated its one hundred and fortieth anniversary on 22/4/2022. A cemetery adjoins the church, and pre-dates it. More historical information/photographs of the church/congregation are invited. Photograph uploaded 13/4/2021 & 20/11/2025.
