Summary
Details

On the edge of Sydney's city centre stands a church which for over 150 years has signalled the presence of God's people in Newtown, a majestic gothic revival church amidst a graveyard. The story of St Stephen's Anglican is one of many ups and downs and God's continuing faithfulness.

This book tells the story of St Stephen's, its people and how they have weathered changes throughout time. A congregation that sometimes looked finished but always found a new chapter. Tracing the history from the original St Stephen's building to the establishment of Camperdown Cemetery, and to the massive effort that saw Edmund Blacket's masterpiece constructed in Newtown, this book illuminates the stories of the well known and unknown who have lived, worshipped, served, and been buried in this place.

Rejoice in how God has sustained the congregation through financial difficulties, and mourn the hardships brought by world wars, pandemics and a turbulent, changing society. The story of God's work in Newtown is not yet finished, but let us take a trip through the journey so far.
