About Us...
We’re a church community in the Inner West of Sydney that seeks to follow Jesus through building community, serving our neighbour, and exploring creativity.
As a Parish Mission of the Uniting Church in Australia we’re engaged in a range of activities across multiple sites. All of them offer us a chance to grow in discipleship and to connect with our neighbours. You’ll find us sharing meals and welfare support at the Jordan Café in Newtown; gathering with the arts community at the Annandale Creative Arts Centre, or developing community connections in Surry Hills. We come together to worship on Thursday nights and Sunday mornings; and we meet as small groups in our homes and cafes for prayer and bible study. So whoever you are, wherever you’re at, there’s a place for you at Newtown Mission.
Worship at Newtown
Newtown Mission – Sunday at 10am (or follow along on our Facebook livestream)
Newtown Mission (Jordan Café chapel) – Thursday at 6pm, followed by community dinner at 7pm
Worship at Newtown brings together a bunch of different traditions and styles (just like our people). It’s pretty informal, filled with great music, and designed to help us live more like Jesus. We really value hearing different voices and stories as witness to what God is doing among us.
