The Uniting Church believes that through the life, death and resurrection of Jesus Christ, God brings us into right relationship with God, whereby in faith we can:

• Live in a close, loving, personal, dynamic relationship with the living God;
• Participate in the worshipping, caring and serving community of Christians;
• Receive God’s gifts so that life can be what God means it to be – loving, purposeful, joyful, eternal; and
• Tell others of this good news and live it out in acts of compassion, service and justice in the community.

We have a worship service at Yamba each Sunday at 9:30am, where approximately 30 people attend. In Iluka, the service is held at 2pm on the first Saturday of the month and is attended by  a small intimate group of around 10 people. At other times, our congregation joins in worship with the local Anglican church  on Sundays at 3pm .

We value the presence of children in our worship services. There is a children's corner in the Yamba church with craft  materials and toys, so your children can stay with you during the service, while also being happily occupied. 

Yes! We share in communion in Yamba on the 3rd Sunday of each month and in Iluka, on the 1st Saturday of the month. We see communion as a tangible reminder of God’s gift to us in Jesus Christ. We believe in open communion – that means that anyone who believes in Jesus Christ is welcome to take communion, whether they are a church member or not.

Occasional small groups are held for discussion and bible study. Check Small groups tab for current availability.
