Notes
  • Significance: Some of the materials used in this building were brought from the earlier Swedish Church at Tinicum, built in the 17th century, and Gloria Dei was erected by the same carpenters and bricklayers who had built the new Church at Fort Christina...The last Swedish pastor was the Rev. Dr. Nicholas Cullin who arrived from Sweden in 1771, and whose death in 1831 ended all connection of the American Swedish Church with that of Sweden. Of much interest in the center aisle in front of the Chancel is the Tomb of the Rev, Adrew Rudman, the learned missionary sent over by Charles XI of Sweden...Many of of the possessions of the Church, such as the Baptismal Font, the Guttenburg Font of 1650, and the wood carvings of the Cherubims in the organ loft came from the earlier Swedish Church at Tinicum. The old bell at Tinicum Church, brought over from Swede in the ship "Fama" in 1643...was placed in the belfry....
