Can’t find it on the website?

The Presbytery and Synod website is crammed full of resources for your ministry, but sometimes it’s hard to find exactly what you’re looking for. That’s why we have a search function directly under the menu bar – just start typing and suggestions will start appearing!

If you still can’t find something, or if you see anything amiss on the website, please let us know through the comments/feedback form! (It’s the green tab on the far right of your desktop or the green bar at the bottom of the page on your mobile device.) Let us know how the site could better serve you.

Called to Care orientation sessions

We are all, in response to God’s love, called to care for one another and the community in which we share in fellowship and ministry. In doing this, we seek to create safe places and practices. Called to Care orientation sessions are for key leaders, officer bearers and church council members and are built around this foundational concept. During the three-hour session, conversations and reflections will look at the practicalities of creating a safe place for all our ministry activities.

There are three Called to Care orientation sessions being held over the coming month – Playford Uniting Church on Saturday 27 February, The Corner Uniting Church on Sunday 28 February and Burnside City Uniting Church on Saturday 5 March. To register your attendance or find out more, please email Turn on Javascript!
