South Sydney Uniting Church is ecumenical (e.g. supporting the National and World
Council of Churches) and inclusive,
affirming the gifts of people of all ages, cultural
backgrounds, sexual orientations and identities. We seek peace with justice,
and the
integrity of creation. We celebrate a service of Word and Sacrament (Eucharist) each
Sunday at 10am.
"We acknowledge the traditional owners of this land: the Gadigal people of the Eora nation."
