The mainspring of our vision at Manning Uniting Church remains connecting.

  • We ALL have a part to play in ensuring that we keep each other connected and in good spirits. Let’s commit to calling someone from church (and beyond) each day – especially those on the ‘margins’.
  • If you feel vulnerable out in the community and would like food or medical supplies delivered – or help in any way – please let us know.
If you're in need of pastoral support or prayer, please contact us.
