* At the time of union with the Methodist and Congregational Churches, the St John’s congregation went into the Uniting Church and those who wanted to remain Presbyterian in Bendigo met together at the Eaglehawk Presbyterian Church under the pastoral care of Rev. J. Aitken (1977-1980) and Rev. C. A. Harrison (1980-1983).

**After union, St John’s was still being used as part of the West Bendigo Charge of the Uniting Church under the pastoral care of Rev. Adrian Pegler (1978-1983).

*** The re-formed St John’s congregation began to meet again in 1982, alongside of the continuing Eaglehawk congregation, as one Charge with two preaching places.  This pre-dates the induction of Rev. John Webster in 1985.
