Dear Monument Australia visitors, we are a self-funded, non-profit organisation, dedicated to recording monuments throughout Australia. Over time the costs of maintaining this website have risen substantially (in fact they are probably larger than those of many companies who exist for profit). In the past we have borne all the costs associated with maintaining the website but we are now having difficulties in paying the monthly expenses.
If Monument Australia is useful to you, please make a donation to keep this historical and educational resource available. Your help would be greatly appreciated.
50th Anniversary of the Port Macquarie Baptist ChurchPrint Page 
The fruit trees and vegetables were planted, and a plaque unveiled, to commemorate the 50th anniversary of the church.
In 1962, the Port Macquarie Baptist Church was formed with 13 members. Originally they were a small group of Christians who met in a home, then as they grew; they began to meet in the CWA Hall receiving assistance from the Kempsey Baptist Church.
This small fellowship first owned land in Lord Street Port Macquarie but they sold it in 1958 to buy another block in Gordon Street where they built an A-framed church that officially opened in 1964.
