40 Years of Multiculturalism Celebration

In 1985, the Uniting Church in Australia officially declared itself a multicultural church, recognising and celebrating the rich cultural and linguistic diversity within its congregations and communities.

Forty years on, the church is gathering to reflect on this journey, share stories, and envision what the next chapter of multicultural ministry will look like.

A major three-day national celebration and conference will be held in Sydney, bringing together church leaders, theologians, cultural communities, and young emerging voices from across Australia and beyond.

It’s a chance to hear where we’ve come from, where we are now, and where we hope to go as a church that lives out its commitment to inclusivity, diversity, and intercultural relationships.

🟠 Join from anywhere! 

While the event is held in Sydney, you can either join us in person at Trinity for a shared livestream viewing and catered hospitality, or tune in online from wherever you are.

It’s a meaningful opportunity to come together as a local community while being part of a national movement.
