History

The Coorow Church Trust was formed in 1958 by members of the Anglican, Methodist
and Presbyterian communities. The Trust raised £9,400 and built the church on land donated by Mr Tilly. The church name 'Coorow All Saints Church' was chosen by the result of a ballot of the members of the Trust. Clergy from the three denominations jointly dedicated the church.
