Comments

The Wandearah Uniting Church is part of the Wimala Presbytery and of the Uniting Church Synod of South Australia. The present church building was erected on land donated by Mr Vanstone, and opened on 6/1/1895. It replaced an earlier church building erected on land donated by Mr Graham, and opened in 1875. The earliest church services in the district had been held in the home of Mr & Mrs Jacobs. The Sunday School Hall was opened on 21/4/1957. A 125th year anniversary had been planned, but due to COVID, had to postponed. No other details are known. More historical information/photographs of the church/congregation are invited. Photographs uploaded 26/5/2022.
