Summary

Ntaria (Hermannsburg) Church was started by Pastors Kempe and Schwartz in 1880. In 1894 the Finke River Mission was taken over by the Lutheran Immanuel Synod. Missionaries started to arrive including CFT Strehlow who published the New Testament in Dieri and later Aranda language. A new church was built in 1897. HA Heinrich took over upon the death of Strehlow, then Albrecht arrived in 1926 and oversaw the advent of a permanent water supply, new buildings, education and training schemes.
