抄録
In 1817 the King of Prussia, Friedrich Wilhelm III, had decreed that one prayer book should be used by all Protestants in Prussia. He thought that to be strong, a country should be united in one belief. After persuasion had failed, the king tried in the early 1830s to force the 'Old Lutherans' to use his form of prayer book. They refused to join the State Union Church and to use the new form of service. They were fighting the Prussian state, and they were therefore looked upon as traitors and rebels. They thought that it had already been difficult to remain in Prussia for their belief. Then they decided to emigrate. A group of parishioners in Klemzig was especially eager to emigrate, and their pastor was August Ludwig Christian Kavel. Initially they decided to go to Russia, later the destination was changed to America. However, at that time, Pastor Kavel learnt of the new colony of South Australia, and with a great help and support of George Fife Angas they finally could come to South Australia in November 1938. Pastor Kavel wrote letters to Germany urging other persecuted Lutherans to join them. Gotthard Daniel Fritzsche, a fellow pastor from the same region, had been particularly hounded by the government and was persuaded by his congregations to emigrate to South Australia. They arrived at Port Adelaide in October 1841. They built together their church and the settlements in the Barossa Valley, and they could now enjoy their life, thanking God. The foundation was established. They gained at last their land of religious freedom here in South Australia after many difficulties. The Lutherans realized their dream.
