What you should know about Baptist Union Of Victoria Mooroolbark
Local History Mooroolbark History The history of both Lily dale and Croydon has been healthy documented and makes fascinating reading for those interested in the hasty days of these towns. But lying between the two is an area largely neglected by historians. The latter is an attempt to piece together the gradual development of a town that grew around an distant railway station to become the largest township in the Shire and, for a time, Melbourne's fastest growing residential suburb. If you have any extra information to contribute we would like to hear from you. Postwar conditions made building permits very difficult to gain as building materials were in brief supply, and in fact only materials for new houses were available. The annual harvest thanksgiving services became an anticipated event. The church was decorated with scarlet vine and flowers, and congregation members would bring their garden produce. In 1972 it became necessary to further extend the property and a fresh church sanctuary was built, opening with Rev Jim Finch as pastor. Remembered for his extraordinary teaching and wisdom, he was greatly appreciated by the trivial congregation. It seems that an older piano in the church received quite a shakeup during the shift from Manchester Road to Hull Road in 1960. History coming of Mooroolbark Baptist Church ABC is a church with a history, but also a church with a destiny. A sense of calling from God as to His purpose direction for our lives together.
