Barmera Uniting Church welcomes you to join us
for worship. Our friendly congregation numbers
about 30, mainly people aged 50+ (but we're always
glad to have younger people join with us!).
Services are followed by morning tea in the
church hall and visitors are very welcome to enjoy
that opportunity to meet the locals.

Easter Dawn service at Lake Bonney
On Easter Day we join with other local
congregations for a dawn service on the shore of
Lake Bonney. In 2024 about 80 people shared
in the dawn service at the amphitheatre near the
football club.
Visitors staying at the nearby Barmera Caravan
Park (or anywhere else in the Riverland) are very
welcome to join us.
The service is followed by a simple free
breakfast (bread, fish and juice) on the lake
front. In 2025 the service will begin at 6.30am
(Sunday 20 April)
See our Facebook page for more of
what’s happening at Barmera Uniting Church.
Our Focus
We’re keen to support, be involved with, and
reach out to our local community with the good
news about Jesus. Some of the ways we are
doing that include:
Christmas
Cafe
The church welcomes the community to the church
hall for a cuppa and bbq tea on the day of the
Barmera Christmas pageant. It’s an ideal spot to
meet with friends while waiting for the fireworks
(Barmera has fabulous fireworks!) at the town oval
opposite the church.
This year the church hall will be open for bbq
tea from 5pm – 9.30pm on the second Friday in
December (13 December 2024). This is the day of
the Barmera Christmas Pageant (Vintage cars
6.15pm, Pageant 6.30pm). Fireworks on the town
oval at 9pm.
So call in for a coffee, or bbq meal, or just
come to listen to Christmas carols played by
Riverland Brass.
Philippines Partnership
Since 2019 our congregation has been building a
partnership with the UCCP (United Church of Christ
in the Philippines) congregation in Lubuagan in
Northern Luzon. Lubuagan is in a rural, mountainous
area. The church was established in the 1920s and is
associated with Kalinga Academy, a Christian
secondary school adjacent to the church.
The photo shows the inside of the
Lubuagan church building.
Communication is via Facebook Messenger.
