Ebenezer Church overlooks the Hawkesbury River in a rural/bushland area that is 12km from the township of Windsor. Built in 1809, Ebenezer Church is the oldest existing church in Australia. It became the first Presbyterian Church in Australia in 1824 and is now a member of the Uniting Church in Australia.

We are two churches, one congregation.
