Comments

The St Luke's Anglican Church, Miranda is in the Parish of Miranda and the Diocese of Sydney. The present church building was opened on 21/3/1971 by the Archbishop of Sydney, M L Loane, and replaced an earlier weatherboard structure erected/opened in 1899, which no longer met the needs of the larger congregation. The church was consecrated on 20/3/1977. More historical information/photographs of the church/congregation are invited. Photographs uploaded 8/11/2020 & 15/10/2024.
