Comments

The former Finlay McQueen Uniting Church, Lang Lang has closed and the property has been sold (2025). The church had been part of the Presbytery of Gippsland and the Uniting Church Synod of Victoria & Tasmania. The present church building was opened in March 1937, and replaced an earlier wooden structure opened in 1891, which was located nearby. Three quarters of the building cost of the new church was met by Mr & Mrs W C Greaves, of Monomeith. The church was a memorial to the Rev Finlay McQueen, who had been a student at the church and much later its minister. More historical information/photographs of the former church/congregation are invited. Photographs uploaded 29/5/2025
