The Uniting Church was formed in 1977 when three denomination came together. The Basis of Union is the document that set the platform for how these churches came together. It states the central affirmations of the Christian faith and is a guide to what is central in the life of the Uniting Church. You can read the basis of Union here:
Basis of Union – Uniting Church Australia
The Uniting Church is in a covenant relationship with the Uniting Aboriginal and Islander Christian Congress. The Preamble to the Constitution tells some of the story of this relationship.

A Building for All…
The Alice Springs Uniting Church worships in the John Flynn Memorial Building. Flynn dreamed of a cathedral within Central Australia where people of all faiths could worship. After his death, his friends across Australia built one in his memory. It was opened by the Prime Minister in 1956, and its design was a result of a national architectural competition incorporating passive cooling, local and national symbolism in its design.
John Flynn Memorial Church is a part of The Flynn Trail, a self-guided heritage tour in Alice Springs and surrounds.
