Welcome to

Paddington Uniting Church

FAITH - INCLUSIVENESS - JUSTICE - CREATIVITY

Creative Community in Action

Welcome to Paddington Uniting Church, a warm and inclusive community in the heart of Sydney.

We are a place of worship, welcome, and belonging, where people from all walks of life are invited to connect, reflect, and grow in faith together. Whether you're exploring faith for the first time, returning after time away, or simply looking for a place to belong, you'll find a warm welcome here.

Grounded in God's love, we seek to build a community of compassion, justice, creativity, and hope. Through worship, hospitality, conversation, music, and the arts, we encourage meaningful connections with one another and the wider community.

Art Exhibition Launch

Truth-Telling: Our Past, Present and Future

Following the successful opening of the Coolamon Arts Hub in Waterloo, we are excited to bring this powerful exhibition to the Uniting Church in Paddington.

Truth-Telling: Our Past, Present and Future features artworks created by KBH Survivors, sharing their lived experiences of Kinchela Boys Home, the ongoing impacts on their lives, and their journeys of reconnecting with family, culture, and identity.

The exhibition also includes ‘We Were Just Little Boys,’ a moving photographic collaboration between Noongar and Spinifex visual storyteller Tace Stevens and the KBH Survivors.

Event Details: Friday, 11 September 2026 6:00 PM – 8:00 PM Uniting Church Paddington 395 Oxford St, Paddington NSW
