Comments
The Bethlehem Lutheran Church was founded in 1928 after a rift in the St Andrew's Lutheran congregation in the city. The church building was erected in 1929 and dedicated on 1/12/1929. After the rift was healed In 1974 both congregations agreed to form a new parish and worship in the St Andrew's church building in Wickham Terrace. The Bethlehem Lutheran congregation held its final service in the church building in February 1976. The building was then acquired by the Catholic Church, Sisters of Mercy. More historical information/photographs of the church/congregation are invited. Photographs uploaded 25/10/2019.
