Manningham Uniting Church was formed in mid 2011 when congregations of Doncaster East, Pilgrim Doncaster -The Grove and Templestowe Uniting churches made the decision to become one. The decision followed fourteen months of consultation between the congregations to decide the shape of their shared future.

The combined members of the four former church congregations are now engaged in working out the details of their future together and living out that future under the guidance of a new Church Council.

There are many active groups within Manningham Uniting Church reflecting the variety of activities of the Congregation.
