Wickham

Bringing good news to Wickham

SUNDAY SERVICE

Weekly meetings 7.00pm Wednesdays: we meet in our home with local Christians. As a community we are committed to the Bible and so our times of meeting together have teaching the Bible at their centre. Visitors and children are always welcome.

OUR MINISTERS

Matt Warth at Cheeditha

Matt Warth: Youth Worker

Matt leads the weekly meetings. He is also Chaplain at Roebourne Prison and also regularly meets with local indigenous Christian men in the community. He loves helping people to know the forgiveness of sins and salvation that Jesus brings. Naomi works as a school chaplain in Wickham and Karratha and enjoys meeting with local women to read the Bible together.

HISTORY

The towns of Wickham and Roebourne are situated close to Karratha in the Pilbara region of the North West.  Roebourne’s first Anglican service took place in 1871.  In October 1883 the first Church building at Roebourne was opened, but destroyed by a cyclone in January 1884. Services were then held in the school until the present church building in Roebourne was opened on the 15th December, 1895.

Cliffs WA Mining Company built the Wickham township in 1970 and the government gazetted it on the 26th November, 1971. The parish of Wickham began in May 1985, but due to a decline in population, the parish was closed down at the end of 2001.  With the generous support of BCA, Wickham parish (including Roebourne) was reopened in May 2009.
