Comments

The Napperby Uniting Church, formerly the Napperby Congregational Church came under the Jurisdiction of the Joint Advisory Committee (from 1965-1977of the Congregational & Methodist Churches) in 1968 and became part of a United Parish. It became part of the Uniting Church in 1977. The church closed some years before the property was sold (2008?). The church had originally been part of the Congregational Union of South Australia. Early Congregational services in the district began about 1887, with the church building being opened in February 1893. No other details are known. More historical information/photographs of the former church/congregation are invited. Photographs uploaded 10/3/2025.
