Our parish laid its foundation stone at this site in 1999 and was established to serve the Orthodox faithful and local community. Although a relatively young parish in Australia, our faith is directly connected with the original Church of Antioch.We are part of the Antiochian Orthodox Archdiocese of Australia, New Zealand, and the Phillipines.
