Community Groups

Do you have the soul and passion to make justice a reality for all people?

Every person is an ‘original blessing’, carriers of a curse or blessing, but created in God's image; creation and life are not 'fallen' but a reflection of God's Spirit.  Original sin is a pure fiction used by some churches to shame people into submission.

Through our groups, Coburg Uniting Church embodies a God who comes to bless, who accepts us. God’s blessing comes to us all through mutual support and friendship, sharing our stories and insights, and social activism.

Join us in making a difference for ourselves and others.
