Who we are
Welcome to the All Saints Network. We’re so glad you’ve found us. Whether you’re exploring Christianity for the first time, looking to join a community of faith, or just visiting, you’re so welcome.
The All Saints Network is a network of churches committed to making disciples of Jesus. Each of our sites are quite different, expressing the diversity of our Anglican tradition. But we all share the same vision and passion to see people ‘live life well together in Jesus.’ We truly believe that true life is found in and through Jesus.
So we exist to do three things:
To persuade people of the truth of who Jesus is and his life and teachings from the Bible (God’s written word to us).
To model that living life well happens best in the context of community, and
To equip and resource you with everything you need for following Jesus, using the gifts and abilities he’s given, to make sure that the life you live is both fulfilling and makes a difference eternally.
We’d love to welcome you at one of our sites! Get in touch with us below, or visit us on a Sunday!

Lead Minister

St John's Church History
The history of St. John’s Church goes right back to the beginnings of European settlement of northern Tasmania in 1804, but is more properly dated from the appointment of Revd. John Youl as chaplain to Port Dalrymple in 1815. With the building itself commenced in 1824, this represents a very long period of accumulated documents, pictures and other artefacts. The building itself is the largest of those artefacts, and includes a small museum area with items and pictures of past times.
The people, of course, are the church, and many Australians, and occasionally people in other countries, have wanted to access records of those people – baptisms, confirmations, weddings, funerals and burials, to further understand their own family history. To preserve those precious records, a large collection of documents relating to the early history of St. John’s Church has been digitised by the Tasmanian Government’s library and archive service, Libraries Tasmania, and can be searched online. Follow: Libraries Tasmania Name Index Search. Libraries Tasmania holds extensive church registers from many different centres across several denominations, but much of the archive collection has not been digitised, and particular registers might need to be booked for reading at the Hobart reading room. See Libraries Tasmania – Church registers held in the Archives Office of Tasmania (stors.tas.gov.au) for a catalogue of the register collection.
Our Heritage and History Team is working hard to catalogue and conserve the artefacts and documents held by the church. The linked articles below, along with our website photo galleries, will give some idea of the past, distant and more recent, of St. John’s Church.
