Union Church (Australia)

In Australia, a Union Church is a church building owned and maintained by a local trust and available to multiple denominations.

Such churches were once common in rural areas.[1] Some were available to all denominations and even to other religions, others specified particular beliefs, such as the Nicene Creed. A few still exist and are in regular use.

Mangrove Mountain Union Church - The Little White Church on the Hill

This quaint 100-year-old church and hall are available for hire Set in the magnificent agricultural district of the Central Coast and offering easy accessibility to the Sydney-Newcastle M1 Freeway, you will be whisked away to yesteryear by the quaintness of the "Little White Church on the Hill" while ensuring all conveniences are at hand.

The two acres of Australian bushland offer you and your guests a truly wonderful experience. The protected carpark accommodates up to forty cars, and the hall comfortably houses up to seventy guests, all of whom can be catered for within the hall's spacious and fully equipped kitchen.

The site is the perfect location to help turn an important event into a really memorable occasion. It is a place where you and your guests can reflect upon, think about and celebrate the stunning world that God has created.

The MMUC hall is available for hire on a casual or regular basis. Community-based organisations find that it is the ideal location for their meetings and special events. It is both highly visible to passing traffic and yet so peaceful to users of the venue. The hall is a large carpeted and vinyl floor space. It includes a kitchen and two small meeting rooms.

MMUC is a community-owned facility overseen by a dedicated community of local people. Its purpose is to assist the local residents to come to a personal relationship with Jesus Christ. All Christian Churches are welcome to hire the church and/or the hall for regular or casual worship and to celebrate significant rites-of-passage, such as weddings, baptisms and funerals. Since 1912 this beautiful church has assisted in meeting the religious needs of the Mangrove Mountain community by celebrating the birth, death and resurrection of Jesus Christ and by acknowledging the relationship that everyone can have with Him as their own personal Saviour.
