These records are held by Australian Institute of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Studies (1964 - current).
The collection, Records of the Evangelical Lutheran Immanuel Synod in Australia, contains records relating to the Kallilpaninna Mission (also known as the Bethesda Mission Station) at Killalpaninna in South Australia and its outstations at Kopperamanna and Etadunna. It also contains records relating to the Hermannsburg Mission in the Northern Territory. The collection includes correspondence, school and other reports, hymns, songs and Bible stories in Diyari, some miscellaneous papers and extracts from South Australian Lutheran German religious periodicals. This collection is made up of photocopies of records held by the Lutheran Church of Australia.

Materials may be subject to access conditions imposed by Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander communities and/or depositors.
