The Anglican Church of Australia

by Dylan Crawfoot

The flag of the Anglican Church of Australia is quite commonly flown by some Anglican churches, at least it is here in Brisbane. One flies out the front of St Martin's House next to St John's Cathedral in Brisbane. The flag reflects the Church's ties with the Church of England, using St George's cross and the blue field of St Andrew, while the stars add an Australian dimension. The gold design in the middle is a representation of the mitre worn by the bishops.

Churches of Christ in Australia

The flag consists of a logo in orange-brown on a white background, with the words "Churches of Christ Australia" to the right of the logo. The logo features a silhouette of 2 stylised human figures either side of a cross. [Ed]

The flag has obviously been made for someone and can be bought from the Flags 2000 website, but I have never come across a flag being used by the Churches of Christ.

The flag consists of a logo on a white background. The circular logo has a black background, and features a white cross above a white semicircle, with a red shape overall whcih can be interpreted either as a flame or a dove. Around the lower edge of the logo are the words "The Uniting Church in Australia". [Ed]
