Yarra Glen Victoria

Fundraising events were organized to raise funds and in November 1887 it was announced that the contract for building the church was let to Mr Robert Lowman and Mr Shaw at a cost of £188 18s 6d, not including seats, fittings, etc.
The ambitious plans of 1886 were modified to suit the budget and, instead of brick, the church was constructed of timber with a very high gable roof. It was opened on Thursday 19 April 1888 by the Bishop of Melbourne, Right Rev. Dr Goe.
