A brief history

Tarrington Lutheran Church was established in 1853 by Lutherans who emigrated from Prussia.
The settlement was originally called Hochkirch, meaning church on a hill.
The current church building was dedicated in 1928.
The Bells in the church were the largest in the Southern Hemisphere, and are still rung 1/2 hour prior to worship, and immediately prior to worship.
Music is provided during worship services by an organist on the Pipe Organ, or the band ‘Living Sounds’.

Our current activities

Regular Sunday morning worship services are held. See the home page for details of times as they vary weekly.
