Parish of Daylesford

Christ Church, Daylesford, St. Matthew’s Hepburn Springs, St. John’s Glenlyon

Situated in the beautiful Central Highlands of Victoria, the Parish of Daylesford is one which values traditional forms of Anglican Worship and Music and the Catholic traditions of our Church.  Many of our members are involved in the life of the wider community, including in areas of concern for social justice.  We aim to be a visible Christian presence in our community, to foster Ecumenical relationships, and to grow our Parish in faith and in number through our presence in the wider community, the celebration of special community events and through participation in Parish life, home groups, pastoral care and, principally, worship.  Our congregations warmly welcome visitors and new members.

Special Activities and Celebrations

We celebrate the major Christian festivals and other days of obligation with as much style as our small Parish can muster!  Other special activities include a St. Luke’s Day celebration for the Hepburn Health Service, the blessing of animals in St. Francis-tide and, this year for the first time, a Festival of Christian Spirituality, Theology and the Arts during November, which will be run through our Parish’s Centre for Christian Spirituality, Theology, and the Arts.  We have active Guilds in the Parish who promote various social and fund-raising activities.
