Comments
The Concord Uniting Church, is part of the Sydney Presbytery of the Uniting Church Synod of NSW & ACT. The church building was opened by Mrs L E Nash on Saturday 22/8/1925 for the Methodist Church of Australasia, and became part of the Uniting Church in 1977. In 1980 five churches amalgamated to form a single Concord Parish:
- Concord Wesley Methodist Church, cnr Concord Road & Sydney Street;
- Concord East Methodist Church, cnr Wallace Street &Burwood Road;
- Central Concord Methodist Church, Majors Bay Road;
- Concord West Methodist Church, cnr Concord Road & Wunda Road [present church building]; and
- Rhodes Methodist Church, Cavell Avenue.
Over the years further amalgamations took place:
- Concord Wesley transferred to the Sydney Cheil Uniting Church, Concord [for Korean speakers] (see separate entry - 2137);
- Rhodes and Concord East churches closed and properties sold; and
- Central Concord also closed but property retained for church activities.
Concord West was renovated and re-opened on 28/7/1991 as the Concord Uniting Church, with members coming from all five churches.[Sourced from: https://www.concordunitingchurch.com/about].
