Comments

The Crystal Brook Community Church is part of the Generate Presbytery and the Uniting Church Synod of South Australia. The church building was opened on 21/10/1877 and the Sunday School building in 1912. The extension to the church building was dedicated on 6/11/1967. The earliest Methodist service in the district is believed to have been held about 1874, in the home of the Tucker Bros. A tempory building is understood to have been erected in 1876, until the church building was completed. More historical information/photographs of the church/congregation are invited.
