Wharf Street Congregational Church, Brisbane
The Wharf Street Congregational Church was a Congregational church built in 1860 on the corner of Wharf Street and Adelaide Street, Brisbane, Queensland, Australia.〔(''Brisbane's Historic Churches -- V -- Wharf Street (Congregational)'', The Brisbane Courier, Saturday 10 December 1904, page 12 )〕 The church was demolished in 1928.〔(''Wharf Street Congregational Church, 1920'', Picture Australia )〕 It was the first Congregational church in Brisbane.
==Early Congregationalism in Brisbane==
It is believed that the first Congregationalists arrived on the ''Fortitude'' on 21 January 1849, being the first of three ships of free immigrants sent to this district by the Rev. Dr. John Dunmore Lang, whose advice to the immigrants was to combine for Christian fellowship and worship rather than establish separate denominations. In March 1850, the United Evangelical Church was created, combining those of Presbyterian, Baptist, and Congregational beliefs, under the ministry of the Rev. Charles Stewart (chaplain of the Fortitude).〔
At first the congregation worshipped in the courthouse, but later purchased land fronting William and George Streets (in 2010 the Lands Office building occupies the site) and erected a brick church. However, while a united church served their early needs, the Baptists desired to have their own church and the united church was sold for £1500 and the proceeds divided between the three denominations, providing the basis for establishing three separate churches: Wharf Street Congregational, Wharf Street Baptist and Creek Street Presbyterian.〔
