St Luke's Anglican Church in Canungra is celebrating 90 years of service to the community in 2026. The church was dedicated on October 18, 1936, by the Archbishop of Brisbane, Dr William Wand. Local builder Gordon Rhoades and his apprentice Arthur Browning constructed the Gothic-style building, using timber milled at the Lahey Corinda Sawmill. The church is listed on the Scenic Rim Council local Heritage Register. The original church building was later moved to Boyland and renamed St Hilda's.
