History

The original St Faiths was in Avon St from 1911 to 1963, and this church carries on the strong Anglican tradition in Quairading. the new church was a result of the foresighted vision of HP Walker who unfortunately passed away on 17 March, only weeks prior to the opening of the Church, on 9 May 1965, by the Right Reverend Brian McDonald.
