Comments
The Good Shepherd Catholic Church, Riverton is part of the Parish of Riverton/Manoora and the Diocese of Adelaide. The establishment of the church at Riverton was associated with the arrival of the The Society of Jesus (the Jesuits) at Sevenhill, and their setting up of a church, college and agricultural activities there, around 1851. The Good Shepherd church was opened on 1/5/1904, with an extension added in 1920. More historical information/photographs of the church/congregation are invited. Photographs uploaded 14/2/2024.
