Church of Christ - Naracoorte Incorporated History
Much of the early church history has been gleaned from articles from the Narracoorte Herald (later Naracoorte Herald), which have been compiled into folders by Betty Francis of Naracoorte.
The earliest mention of ‘Church of Christ’ and a ‘Christian Sunday School’ in the mid South East of SA found in the Narracoorte Herald dates back to 1876 with reference to a group at Kingston SE. A ‘Second Anniversary’ services were held on 29th September 1878 and a Sunday School picnic on the 1st October.
Reference is made to ‘Christian Disciples’ at Border Town (Bordertown) and Wolseley in the Narracoorte Herald in the late 1880’s.
A six week tent mission was held in Narracoorte in August and September 1905 with H Leng (from Kaniva) as the evangelist. H P Leng conducted another tent mission in February 1906 with the mission tent erected ‘near where the new Church of Christ chapel was being built’ (Robertson Street). The new chapel was opened on March 4th 1906. Mr A B Maston, then editor of the Australian Christian, conducted the morning service and Mr H P Leng the evening service.
The group started with 15 members and quickly grew to 65 in the first 12 months. A Sunday School picnic was held on the Sandstone Quarry Reserve in early December 1906 with around 120 people attending.

Open our ears.
Blessed Lord, open our ears to hear what Thou speakest and our eyes to see as Thou seest. Give us hearts to beat in sympathy with Thine at the sight of every little child; and above all, our Lord, to understand and experience how surely and how blessedly Thou fulfilest Thy promise, "Whoso shall receive one such little child in my name receiveth me."
