Hills District - Religion

Religion

The area is notable for the fact that it has the highest rate of religious service attendance in Australia and is thus often referred to as the Australian Bible belt. This area has a relatively high concentration of evangelical Christians. Many religious denominations and belief systems are represented throughout the district, including, notably, the Mormon's Sydney Australia Temple in Carlingford, the Hillsong Church situated in Norwest Business Park. As with other urban regional areas in Australia there are numerous other places of worship catering to a wide range of belief systems including Anglican, Baptist, Buddhist, Hindu, Uniting, Chinese Christian, Islamic, Spiritualist, Roman Catholic and Sikh.
