Comments

The St Margaret's Catholic Church, Port Broughton is part of the Parish of Kadina and the Diocese of Port Pirie. The effort for the construction of the Catholic church building was largely through the work of Mrs Margaret Klingengberg, and the church was named St Margaret's in recognition of her contribution. The church was blessed and opened by the Very Rev Fr Elias Magennis on 14/9/19021. More historical information/photographs of the church/congregation are invited. Photographs uploaded 2/3/2025.
