Comments

The Our Redeemer Lutheran Church, Warracknabeal is part of the Minyip Warracknabeal Lutheran Parish of the Lutheran Church of Australia. The first Lutherans came to the district in the early 1870's with several churches opening in rural areas. However, it was only in 1922 that the first church was built in Warracknabeal. This building served the congregation for the next 49 years. The present larger building was constructed and then opened on 13/2/1972 in front of 1200 people. More historical information/photographs of the church/congregation are invited. Photographs uploaded 6/12/2016.
