The Uniting Church in Australia acknowledges we live and work on Aboriginal land. In 2010, we became the first church in Australia to constitutionally acknowledge Aboriginal and Islander people as the First Peoples of Australia. The Church’s constitution adopted in 2009 reflects our remorse for past mistakes and commitment to reconciliation with Australia’s First Peoples.
