Presbyterian Church of Australia (NSW) Parish of Macquarie
The Presbyterian Church of Australia (NSW) Parish of Macquarie is a Christian nonprofit organization affiliated with the Presbyterian Church of Australia in New South Wales. It operates under the charitable ABN 48960670495RR0001 and is recognized for its community-focused programs targeting youth, children, women, men, and families[1].

History and Activities
The parish, also known as Macquarie Presbyterian Church[4], has a long-standing presence in New South Wales. It conducts regular worship services and promotes community engagement through initiatives designed to foster social connection and spiritual growth[1][3]. While distinct from the former St Stephen’s Presbyterian Church (now St Stephen’s Uniting Church), the parish shares the broader Presbyterian tradition of Reformed doctrine and evangelical practice[2][5].

The organization emphasizes adherence to Protestant theology, affirming belief in a singular God as creator and moral authority[2]. Specific historical details about its founding remain less documented in available public records, though its inclusion in government registries indicates ongoing operation since at least the early 20th century[4].

Location and Heritage
The parish is associated with the Marsfield area of Sydney, though precise architectural or heritage details of its facilities are not formally listed in state registries[1][3]. This distinguishes it from historically designated Presbyterian-related sites such as St Stephen’s, which transitioned to the Uniting Church in 1977[5].

Governance
As part of the Presbyterian Church of Australia’s NSW synod, the parish follows the denomination’s governance structure, emphasizing elder-led congregations and adherence to the Westminster Confession[2]. Its charitable status underlines a commitment to community welfare alongside religious ministry[1][4].
