Welcome to

Acknowledgement of Country
We respectfully acknowledge the Jerrinja community of the Yuin Nation, who are the Traditional Custodians and First People of the land on which we meet, and pay respect to the Elders past, present and future and acknowledges their deep and enduring relationship to their ancestral lands.

Our Motto: 

"Proclaiming Christ,
serving the community
with love"

Our Mission:
“To preach the good news of Christ and to be a tangible, growing expression of God's acts of love through relationships and partnerships within the congregation and the community.”

Who we are
We are a congregation of the Uniting Church in Australia. We belong to the Illawarra Presbytery and the NSW/ACT Synod of the Uniting Church.
Worship
We offer worship in-person and on Zoom. We have a QR Code and encourage everybody to download the Service NSW app.
However, we also offer worship via Zoom. If you wish to join our Zoom service, please email secretary@berryuniting.org for an invitation.
The service on the first Sunday of the month is usually a Communion Service.

Coffee and friends
Good news! Coffee & friends is back. C & F resumed on Wednesday 26th May after a long break because of COVID-19. The speaker was medical scientist, Prof. Tim Billington, speaking about viruses and vaccines.

The speaker in June will be singer and musician David Foley.

C&F normally meets on the 4th Wednesday of the month at 10am for "Great coffee, great conversations and great speakers." We have invited some local identities to tell us about their lives, careers and passions and we have heard some fascinating talks.
We also have videos of some of the speakers at our monthly gatherings. Go to the "Coffee and friends" tab to find the links.
