Bringing the good news to Broome
We opened our doors on April 13, 1903 to the frontier pearling town of Broome. With hard conditions on the luggers, stifling wet seasons, the ‘big blows’ claiming many lives, and even bombing raids during World War 2, life in here can be tough. The congregation has always been keen to let the town people know ‘Jesus loves Broome’. So, for over a century, Broome Anglican Church has played its part in bringing the good news of salvation in Jesus to the western Kimberley.
Our family congregation is a diverse group. As a church, we are committed to the Bible and so our times of meeting together have teaching the Bible at the centre.
