Hope Uniting Church – where every story, voice, and thread of humanity is cherished in a safe, loving community rooted in faith, justice, and connection with each other, creation, and God.
Who we are
Gathering on the ancient, sacred lands of the Gadigal and Bidjigal peoples, Hope Uniting Church warmly invites all to journey with us in faith, community, and love.
Together, we are a tapestry woven from diverse people – spanning ages, races, gender identities, sexual orientations, cultures, abilities, theological and social perspectives, and work or financial realities. We honour the sacredness of each person’s story, the unique perspectives they bring, and the many ways we express our humanity. We are committed to holding our differences with respect and love, as we grow in compassion, understanding, and connection with one another, creation, and God, the source of life, redeemer and sustainer.
We invite you to come as you are, with your questions and doubts, joys and suffering, faith and curiosity. Bring your light, your truth, your humanity – all a thread in God’s tapestry, every voice a note in love’s eternal hymn. We strive to be a safe space – accessible, just, and tender – where all are seen, cherished, and held in the embrace of community and the love revealed in Jesus Christ.
What we believe
known and loved
Faith is as much about belonging as it is about believing. So our commitment and our struggle is to grow relationships and a community of depth and authenticity. All this is built on the strong foundations of good food, great coffee, common tasks and shared prayer.
nourished in faith
Hope is a church committed to helping you grow in your Christian faith; with all your heart, soul, mind and strength. We’re interested in the practices that help us to grow. Prayer retreats, gardening, bible studies, bush walks, justice advocacy, small groups and more.
catalyst of grace
Jesus is all about the deep, hard won work of reconciliation; within our own lives, within our relationships and indeed with the whole of creation. Our vision is to be a community changed by God’s grace and participating in God’s transformation of the world around us.
