Our History
2022 marks 144 years of St Margaret's Nerang. Articles relating to the church built as 'St. Margaret's Church of England in Nerang Street, Nerang' date back to 1877. The historical church building became too small for the increasing population and was sold in 1992, the site was also sold. The original heritage listed church building was moved to the Evandale grounds of Gold Coast City Council, restored and is used as a non-denominational chapel for weddings, as a community hall, and evening meetings for non-profit organisations. A new church called 'St Margaret's Anglican Church' was built at 167-169 Beaudesert-Nerang Road, Nerang in 1996.
Values
To teach, baptise and nurture new believers;
To respond to human need by loving service;
To seek to transform unjust structures of society, to challenge violence of every kind and pursue peace and reconciliation;
To strive to safeguard the integrity of creation and sustain and renew the life of the earth;
To worship and celebrate the grace of god;
And to live as one holy catholic and apostolic church.
Lord, make me an instrument of your peace; where there is hatred, let me sow love; where there is injury, pardon; where there is doubt, faith; where there is despair, hope; where there is darkness, light; and where there is sadness, joy.
May the road rise up to meet you. May the wind be always at your back. May the sun shine warm upon your face; the rains fall soft upon your fields and until we meet again, may God hold you in the palm of His hand.
May the Lord bless you and keep you. May the Lord make his face to shine upon you, and be gracious to you. May the Lord lift up his countenance upon you, and give you peace.
