About us:
The Anglican Church of St, Simon and St Jude, Bowral is part of the Anglican Church of Australia, which is in turn a part of the world-wide Anglican Communion of Christian churches.
The parish is located in the Southern Highlands of NSW approximately 120km south west of Sydney and is part of the Sydney Diocese.
Our locality provides opportunities to enjoy some of the festivals and attractions of this beautiful area. St Jude's is part of the Bradman Walk and is only minutes from Bradman Museum. The annual Tulip Time Festival in September/October sees many visit the Highlands and local gardens and St Jude's also opens the grounds in conjunction with this.
Bowral and the surrounding areas offer much for tourists and visitors to enjoy and a wonderful lifestyle for those resident to the community. This includes many antique stores and books shops, and a developing coffee culture. St Jude's enjoys a close contact with the community and seeks to serve to those in the highlands.
The congregation is involved in running a broad range of ministries for all ages. See our "Ministries" link to find out where you can be involved. In keeping with the Evangelical tradition, St Jude's supports spreading the gospel to the world and accordingly links itself with several mission organisations and individuals. This both enriches our experience and provides a focus beyond our own community.
St Jude's Bowral is a community of Christian people who worship Jesus Christ as Lord and Saviour.
Through his death and resurrection rebellious and autonomous human beings are brought into a right relationship with God.
Through the gift of the Holy Spirit we are united in love for one another and seek to share the Good News of Jesus with the community around us.
The Bible tells of God's great drama and is available for all to read. The Bible says: "God was in Christ reconciling the world to himself." (2 Corinthians 5:19)
We invite you to join us and discover more about Jesus.
