St Stephens Majors Creek

St Stephens Majors Creek


The village of Majors Creek is located 16kms south of Braidwood. The foundation stone of St Stephens Church was laid 10th November 1870, completed 1872 and dedicated 6th September 1880.

St Stephens is built of hand cut local stone by noted stonemason Peter Rusconi.

It originally had a shingle roof later being replaced by fibro slates. The Pews are handcut cedar and sassafras and the Altar Rail, Reading Desk are cedar. The Pulpit built by Alexander Hicks was originally in the first St Andrews at Braidwood. Various furnishings and memorials are dedicated to loved ones. The Smith American Reed Organ (1890-1900) is still in use today.

The church is now a popular venue for country weddings and is also used as a venue for the Annual Music at the Creek Festival.

Monthly services are held on the first Sunday of each month at 11-00am (or advised otherwise) and Christmas Day at 7-30am and Easter Sunday 7-30am.
