At Irymple there is a church that has been founded on the do-it-yourself basis. It was moved to Irymple from Annuello using voluntary labour and this seems to have formed the foundation of what has followed.

The parishioners do the church cleaning and launder the church linen. They also maintain the garden and the church. Members of the congregation are actively involved in the liturgy.

This working together has formed a bond between our congregation which is multicultural. This has given us all a greater depth of faith and a feeling of community.

The people at Irymple save money through working bees and it gives them a sense of belonging. If you have not been to the Irymple Church, you are invited to come to the 8.30 a.m. Mass held there every Sunday.
