Comments
The Pilgrims of Zion Lutheran Church, Sedan is part of the Mid Murray Parish (with St Martin's, Mannum; St John's, Cambrai; Trinity, Palmer; St John's, Forster and Zion Evangelical, Milendella) in the SA-NT District of the Lutheran Church of Australia. The church was founded about 1871, with the early services being conducted in the home of Mr W J Pfeiffer. The first church building, which was erected on land donated by Mr Macgary, was dedicated on 23/11/1873. This building was also used as a school. As the congregation grew and the building needed repair it was decided to erect a new church building. The present church building was dedicated on 25/11/1923. The church celebrated 150 years of worship at this site in 2023. More historical information/photographs of the church/congregation are invited. Photographs uploaded 26/10/2026.
