Comments

The former St Aidan's Uniting Church, Narrabundah was part of the Canberra Region Presbytery of the Uniting Church Synod of NSW & ACT. The church building was erected in 1962, and is no longer recorded as a church or faith community of the presbytery on its website.

Since 2021 St. Aidan's Church in Narrabundah no longer operates as a traditional church but has been remodelled to become the Rise Ministries 'Sanctuary'. The building now serves as a "fresh expression of church" and is a home for the Rise Ministries community, which offers contemplative, healing prayer and community. Rise Ministries has established a relationship with the Uniting Church. 

More historical information/photographs of the former church/congregation are invited. Photographs uploaded 20/9/2025.
