Comments

The former Grahame Memorial Presbyterian Church, Waverley was opened on 5/2/1898. It replaced an earlier church/school building opened in 1885.

After Union, in 1977, it became the Grahame Memorial Uniting Church, and is now used by the Jubilee Church. The Jubilee [International] Church was founded in 1997 and began using this building about 2006. More historical information/photographs of the former/present church(es)/congregation(s) are invited. Photographs uploaded 27/2/2021.

(The Australian Star - 7 February 1898) "WAVERLEY PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH. The ceremony of opening the new Presbyterian Church at Victoria Street, Charing Cross, Waverley, was performed last Saturday afternoon in the presence of a large assemblage, which completely filled the church."
