The Moyne-Warrnambool Uniting Church congregation comprises members worshipping at Warrnambool, Port Fairy, Mortlake and Allansford & District churches. Allansford & District worship alternates between Wangoom, Allansford, Mepunga East and Grasmere.
The Uniting Church acknowledges the lands of the Peek Whurrong and Kirrae Whurrong Peoples of the Gunditjmara and Girai Wurrung Clans of the Eastern Maar Nation. We pay our respects to their Elders past and present.
As an organisation, we work in solidarity with Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people as Australia’s First Peoples and as the traditional owners and custodians of this land.
We celebrate diversity and value the lived experience of people of every ethnicity, faith, age, disability, culture, language, gender identity, sex, and sexual orientation.
We pledge to provide inclusive and non-discriminatory services.
