Welcome
Beechworth Anglican Parish
Anglicans and our communities have worshipped and celebrated in Christ Church St Peter and St Paul Beechworth since 1858 and St Jude's Eldorado since 1870
We gather on the country of the Dhudhuroa, Waywurru, Yatmaithang and Nooray-illium-wurrung peoples who have honoured and nurtured our shared Creation for millennia. We offer our respect to their elders of the past, the speakers of the first words, and to those of the present, who invite and encourage us to recognise and share the unique gifts of their culture. We pray that our journey together brings reconciliation and healing.
Worship
Sunday services are held at 9:30am in Beechworth and 5:00pm and on Tuesday and Thursday at 9:30am. Services are held in Eldorado on the second and fourth Sundays of every month at 11:00am. All are welcome. At Holy Eucharist, the consecrated gifts are offered in both forms or by intinction. Morning tea follows our Sunday services.
