St Stephen's Uniting has 'twinned' with Narromine Uniting Church, a rural congregation about 6 hours drive west of St Stephen's Uniting' church building in Macquarie St, Sydney.
On the first weekend of June we look forward to having some of the Narromine Uniting Church stay with us over the weekend, including worshipping with us on the Sunday at 10am.
An affirmation of the Saltbush Project is: "Uniting the Scattered Community is our hope that through our work we can encourage smaller Christian communities, irrespective of size or location, to be connected, to be affirmed, and to be challenged within their faith lives in our contemporary world and society."
The Church has sometimes fallen into the trap of affirming those congregations that are big, famous, wealthy and well positioned, while struggling to support and value smaller Christian communities.
St Stephen's Uniting has visited Narromine, and Narromine church has visited us. Also, some of our people stay in Narromine to assist in ways the congregation request.
