The Parish of Kangaroo Flat
St Mary's, 195 High St. Kangaroo Flat, 3555
Situated at the southern gateway to the City of Greater Bendigo, the parish, established in 1862, combines history with a deep sense of mission to the rapidly growing areas of Kangaroo Flat, Lockwood Marong and Ravenswood. Fellowship within the church family follows the commission of Jesus in spreading the Christian message in the parish and by support of mission agencies. Striving to live as a community of faith, links have been established with the local primary school through various programmes such as Wednesday Breakfast Club, CRE and Kids Craft Connection each week. There are pastoral linkages to local services such as CFA and SES and the St. Laurence Court Hostel.
The 1862 church has been newly painted and is a very suitable venue for all services. The experienced catering group caters regularly for different activities and the hall is very suitable for functions. There is ample off-street parking on the large, easily accessible site
