'Dare to Question and to Act'
Welcome to Woden Valley Uniting Church!
We are a progressive, inclusive Christian community, seeking to follow the way of Jesus, striving to build a just world for all, through:
- hospitality
- worship which nurtures connections with the sacred, each other and the community
- engagement with local communities, and
- advocacy.
The full text of our vision and mission statement can be found here.
Brochure - a printable version of our brochure can be downloaded here.
You are invited to come and explore the Christian faith, within this community, irrespective of your age, race, sexual orientation, gender, circumstance or cultural background. In particular there is no expectation of holding to certain beliefs: the congregation encompasses a wide range of theological perspectives. You are welcome even if you have not been near a church in a long time or have never been.

Our Library
We have an extensive library of over 400 titles: some are worship resources, but most are books exploring perspectives, or for inviting reflection or covering the life and thought of notable Christians. For more information go to the Growing in Faith page.
Our premises at Curtin are available for hire by community groups and commercial organisations (different rates apply) and are a venue for classes, small group meetings and other activities. We welcome enquiries about hiring. For further information see Venue Hire.
We acknowledge the traditional custodians of the land on which we gather. For thousands of years indigenous people have walked on this land, their country. We honour the wisdom of their elders – past and present – and their continuing culture, including profound spiritual insights.
Woden Valley Uniting Church operates under the Safe Church principles of the Uniting Church of Australia.
We have adopted Synod's Commitment Statement which provides a summary of the Synod’s agreed commitments articulated in its Child Safe Policy.
