Sylvania, church


This church is located along the Princes Highway in the southern suburb of Sylvania. The first church building for the Congregational Church was erected in 1903 and is still used today as Heritage Hall. This A-frame building was built in 1968 and became a Uniting Church in Australia following the union of the Congregational, Methodist and Presbyterian denominations in 1977. It became the Shire Gateway Uniting Church but the building is now shared with St. Prophet Elijah Macedonian Orthodox Church.
