Thomastown Lutheran Church celebrating 166 years of worship
The Thomastown Lutheran Church has been open for 166 years this month. We have been worshiping monthly on the 4th Sunday since lockdowns but have recently gone back to the 2nd and 4th Sunday over the summer months. There are still no utilities connected (and no toilets) but we still love to gather in this historic little church for worship and fellowship.
Many in attendance on Sunday 13th November were descendants or connections of the original German Lutheran settlers in the region. We often have people who are touring the pioneer precinct poke their heads in for a look at the living history taking place before them.
Rather than using the elevated pulpit above the altar, Pastor Tim usually sits for the sermon, a different perspective than the attached photo!
