About us
Our Mission
We believe that the door to salvation is always open and so are the doors to our church. Our mission is to be fully devoted to Jesus by opening our arms to those in search of the truth. We show God’s love and concern for our fellow man at every opportunity. Through works of charity and opening our doors to listen and love, we feel that we are walking in the footsteps of Jesus Christ.
The Uniting Church in Australia
Haigslea Uniting Church is a congregation of the Uniting Church in Australia (UCA). The Uniting Church is the third largest Christian denomination in Australia and the first church to be created in and of Australia. The Uniting Church came into being on 22 June 1977, after three denominations - Congregational Union in Australia, the Methodist Church of Australia, and the Presbyterian Church of Australia - joined together. On any Sunday more than 2,500 congregations worship at a Uniting Church including many congregations that worship in languages other than English. The churches can be found deep in the heart of our cities, or in the most isolated and outback towns. Many congregations have existed for years while others are new and worship in different ways. Even though our congregations can be vastly different, each is a community in which people seek to follow Jesus, learn about God, share their faith, care for each other, serve the local community and seek to live faithfully and with real joy.
The Minister
The current Minister of the Word in placement for the Rosewood-Haigslea Uniting Church is Rev Peter Taubner.
Haigslea UC Strives in Supporting the Community!
Peter is the one to talk to in regard to worship services, arrangements for marriages, questions about funerals, planning for baptisms and preparing for any other celebrations that might require a Ministers’ presence or advice. He’s also up for just a chat if you’re struggling with life’s issues or have a particular point of stress and all you need is a
listening ear. One of Peter’s many roles will be to further the good work begun by his predecessors in ministering to the local community and wider afield.
