Comments
The All Saints' Catholic Church, Port Augusta is part of the Parish of Port Augusta and the Diocese of Port Pirie. The present church building was opened on 24/10/1976, replacing the original 1882 structure, which held its final service on 7/12/1975 and was demolished to make way for the new building. The old church building also served as the Catherdral church of the Diocese of Port Augusta, before the Diocese relocated to Port Pirie. The first Bishop of the Diocese of Port Augusta was the Right Rev Dr John O'Reilly. More historical information/photographs of the church/congregation are invited. Photographs uploaded 27/1/2024
