SUMMARY:FoLA Meeting April 2024 - Vanagas: Preserving Lobethal’s History; Preserving a Lutheran Relic
DESCRIPTION:FoLA Public Meeting\, Thursday 18 April 2024\nVanagas: Preserving Lobethal’s History; Preserving a Lutheran Relic\nSpeaker: Andrew Zilm\n$5 Donation \nHeld at Immanuel Lutheran Church\, North Adelaide \nLIVESTREAM on FoLA YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/@friendsoflutheranarchives9644/live \n\nJonas Vanagas seemed like an interesting character. A New Australian\, he came to Lobethal after a long and\, at times\, threatening route from Lithuania via Denmark and Melbourne in 1949. He worked in the Onkaparinga Woollen Mill and in his spare time began a task\, with the help of others\, to preserve Lobethal’s history. He put together a self-published\, self-bound book of the town’s history and then assembled a collection of items that was the beginning of the Lobethal Archives and Historical Museum (LA&HM). References in articles say he was unassuming but my take from reading his letters was that he was a strong community-minded and a self-assured man. Maybe seen as a strange thing for a New Australian? \nAndrew Zilm\, a retired Secondary School teacher\, was raised in Lobethal. Drawn back to Lobethal for a 50 year football reunion in 2022\, he has been recruited to audit\, digitise and update the Lobethal Archives & Historical Museum’s display and collection. One cannot avoid learning about Vanagas when doing work in the small museum. Drawing from articles and newspapers from the LA&HM as well as the Lithuanian Archives in St Peters\, Jonas Vanagas will again take centre stage.

SUMMARY:FoLA Meeting March 2024 - Indonesian Christian Fellowship of Adelaide (ICFA) and their bule friend
DESCRIPTION:FoLA Public Meeting\, Thursday 21 March 2024\nIndonesian Christian Fellowship of Adelaide (ICFA) and their bule friend\nSpeakers: Dasni Rau and Anthea Habel\n$5 Donation \nHeld at Immanuel Lutheran Church\, North Adelaide \nLIVESTREAM on FoLA YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/@friendsoflutheranarchives9644/live \n\nDasni Rau arrived in Adelaide in 1990 at the invitation of the LCA as an exchange church worker for one year and during this exchange she met Pastor Jim Pietsch at Whyalla. After a year in Indonesia\, she returned to Adelaide to marry Robert and they have two adult sons. Dasni has been a chaplain’s assistant at Flinders University with Pastor Mike Pietsch and worked for many years at Resthaven Marion. She is a founding member of ICFA and has held many positions over the years. She is a proud Batak woman and very keen for Bataknese (one of the largest indigenous groups in the country) living in Adelaide to learn and practice their traditions. Dasni is also a member at Trinity Pasadena. \nAnthea Habel is a member at Trinity Pasadena and of ICFA. She served as the cross-cultural deacon for many years\, giving her contact with international students from many countries. While working for forty years in the library at the University of Adelaide she made many more friendships with students and staff from many faith backgrounds. Her Bahasa Indonesian skills are barely good enough because everyone wants to practice their English. She travelled with a group of Indonesian ladies on a mission trip in 2019. \nCome and hear about the history of IFCA\, the long term friendships that endure between the ICFA and Trinity Pasadena members\, the joyous social events and then enjoy a sing along followed by something different for supper.

SUMMARY:FoLA Meeting Feb 2024 - "Church Stumps and Four Children’s Graves: Headington Hill\, Qld"
DESCRIPTION:FoLA Public Meeting\, Thursday 29 February 2024\nChurch Stumps and Four Children’s Graves: Headington Hill\, Qld\nSpeaker: Jennifer Stehn\n$5 Donation \nHeld at Immanuel Lutheran Church\, North Adelaide \nLIVESTREAM on FoLA YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/@friendsoflutheranarchives9644/live \n\nAcross Australia\, there are remnants of small communities that no longer exist. People who pass by these sites today often don’t know of the community that once thrived there\, of the people\, their lives and why they disappeared. Everywhere\, the land is layered with multiple lives. Local historians uncover the stories of past communities and connect them to the bigger picture – helping at times to change the big picture. \nJennifer Stehn has been interested in history all her life\, reading it\, dissecting it\, writing about it – but never uncovering it\, until now. \nTwelve years ago\, the Stehn family included the site of the St Peter’s Lutheran Church\, Headington Hill\, Queensland\, as part of reunion celebrations. Jennifer wrote the family history\, The Fred and Alma Story\, that was launched the following year. Since then\, a small\, and ever-expanding group\, has adopted and cared for this acre of land\, surrounded by farmland looking west across the Darling Downs. All that remains of the past are the 47 wooden stumps of the church and four children’s graves. But now there is a vibrant Headington Hill Heritage Acre Association (Inc) whose members regularly visit for working bees\, picnics\, reunions – or just stop by for a cup of tank water and feel the presence of the past. Jennifer’s recent book\, One Acre of History\, tells the story of the people\, the pastors\, establishing and dismantling the church\, and the present-day association caring for the site. A complete set of minutes of the small congregation\, mostly in German\, was valuable source material for this story. The world the minutes meticulously document\, from 1900 to 1941\, is gone – the church\, the farming community\, the connections with the German culture. But the threads into lives before and after are there for us to pick up and to help make sense of who we are now. \nJennifer Stehn grew up on a farm at Headington Hill\, Queensland. She went to Adelaide to attend the University of Adelaide and Lutheran Teachers College. She had an extensive career in education\, first as a classroom teacher\, then as a deputy principal and principal. She worked for many years in curriculum development at state and national levels\, remaining always committed to the incorporation of social justice perspectives in teaching and learning.
