Other Churches in Western Australia

There are specific pages covering Anglican, Catholic and Uniting Churches in Western Australia due to their sheer numbers. Here are other places of worship we have come across in our travels. What a diverse place we live in. Placing these denominations together on a single page does not serve to diminish the relevance of any of them

Bayswater

On Slade Street is the Lord of The Nations Apostolic Christian Church.

Wembley

The Church of Christ on Nanson Street, this time looking down the side. It is easy to see here the old and new sections of the church. Perhaps the Foundation Stone was removed from the front of the old church and relocated to the front of the new section? Photo - September 2017

Photo - April 2013

Midland - Evangel Church

The Evangel Charismatic Church at 6 Padbury Terrace, Midland. The church has no foundation stone. It appears to be in very good condition. The building is not listed on the state heritage site and web searches regarding the church don't reveal a lot. Photo - June 2016

Katanning

The Aboriginal Evangelical Church, formerly known as Noongar Christian fellowship, was established in 1974. Photo - April 2015

Tambellup

Perth

On the corner of William Street and Robinson Avenue, this Mosque is a familiar landmark. It is hard to believe this was built as long ago as 1904 as it looks a lot more recent. Photo - July 2010

Fremantle

Behind these shops is the old Jewish Synagogue which was built in 1902. The Star of David is still there right at the top. The synagogue only operated as such for a handful of years before another one opened in Perth. The shops at the front were added later by Mr Beer. Photo - January 2012

Fremantle

This is the rear of the synagogue which is behind the Beers Buildings. This view is as seen from near the main entrance to Fremantle Oval. Construction work is being undertaken on the land on this side of the building so this view may be lost in time. Photo - December 2014

This was an Anglican Church from 1909 until 2000. Photo - August 2016

Just behind the Woodloes Homestead in Cannington is this church known as the "Church with Chimney". It is a replica of the 1890 original church on Albany Highway which had to be removed due to road widening. Materials from the original church were used in this reconstruction. Photo - October 2013

The Cadoux Nondenominational Church is located across the road from the primary school. This was built in 1959 and opened on April 17th of that year.

Konnongorring

The United and Anglican Christ Church sits by the highway. Rather a modern-looking building suggests it was built in the last 20-30 years. Photo - October 2011

Yarloop

A visit to Yarloop nine months after the devastating January 2016 bushfire. This building was spared. This is on the south side of town and used to be the Anglican All Saints Church built in 1909. Up until recently the building was abandoned, the home of just bees. The January destruction of the Catholic Church and the need for a spiritual presence has seen the building renovated by the community and opened as a Christian Non-Denominational Church. Photo - September 2016

More or less across the road from the school on View Terrace is the Bicton Presbyterian Church. Photo - September 2018

Mardella

At 191 Wright Road but only slightly south of the Mundijong townsite is the brand new Free Reformed Church complex. Just nearing completion, it looks fabulous. A whole lot of passionate work must have gone into building this place because you can feel that in the air. Photo - March 2017

Bayswater

Here is the Romanian Baptist Church on Guildford Road near Leake Street. The Foundation Stone of the building was laid on 22nd September 1906 by Mr W. Frew. This may have been originally built as an Anglican Church. Photo - July 2013.

On Marlborough Street close to West Parade is this Serbian Orthodox Of The Holy Trinity Church. There are no obvious identifying signs on the complex. Photo - June 2019

Bookara

Bookara is a tiny locality on the northern periphery of the Shire or Irwin, about 20 kilometres from Dongara. This former Seventh Day Adventist Church is in the process of being privately restored and conserved. The church served as a Seventh Day Adventist Church from 1905 to 1954. It was the first SDA church in Western Australia. Photo - September 2014

On Jayes Road on the outskirts of Boyup Brook travelling towards Bridgetown is this rather unusually designed 'A' frame structured church. It is the Seventh Day Adventist Church. Photo - April 2012

Osborne Park

The Osborne Park Seventh Day Adentist Church is on Edward Street. Photo - April 2019

The Seventh Day Adventist Church at 10 Cleopatra Street. This was probably built in the 1960's or 70's. Photo - June 2016

Bayswater

On Murray Street close to the Bayswater primary school is the Sikh Gurdwara Perth. Lovely stonework at the front of what appears was once a church of a different persuasion. Looking at the Foundation Stone, I note it was laid on 21st May 1955 by Miss M. O. Stevens B. A. Photo - July 2013

Maylands

At 123 Caledonian Avenue is the Maylands Christian Spiritualist Church. This structure was built in 1941 and was first known as St Hilary's Hall however by 1944 it became known as it is known today, the Spiritualist Church and Hall. It looks very smart. All locked and barred today so I couldn't get in to search for a foundation stone. Photo - September 2024

Middle Swan

This is the former Buffaloes Lodge on the corner of Great Northern Highway and Viveash Road. This building was constructed originally as a church. The Swan Memorial Church's Foundation Stone was laid by Sir Francis Newdegate on 17th December 1922. The building is now the Middle Swan Spiritualist Church. Photo - October 2013

Maylands

Ukrainian Catholic Church of St. John the Baptist on Ferguson Street, Maylands. The church was established and constructed around 1966. The structure in the foreground celebrates one thousand years of Christianity in the Ukraine, 988 to 1988. Photo: November 2013

Maylands

Right down at the south end of Ferguson Street is this Ukrainian Orthodox Church of St Nicholas the Wonderworker. The compound is mostly inaccessible as the gates are locked so I have not been able to sight a foundation stone thus far or take a complimentary photo. The brickwork hints of a 1930's build. Photo: September 2024. Photos Ref: MAYL005

Yokine - Vedanta Church

On Golf View Street is the Venanta Church of Universal Religion (Branch of Ramakrishna Math & Mission of India). This complex was once the Yokine Uniting Church and Hall constructed in 1958. Photo - July 2018
