Paraburdoo

Paraburdoo and Tom Price are nestled in the beautiful Hamersley Ranges. These areas are rich in iron ore. As a result both towns are built around mining. In Paraburdoo, every resident is connected with the mine in one way or another. Tom Price is a larger and older town and has other industries. It is the gateway to the Karijini National Park. This stunning system of gorges attracts a continuous flow of tourists throughout the winter season. Both towns are young and multicultural. The average age of both towns is under ten, giving an energetic feel to the area.

Splitting their time between Tom Price and Paraburdoo – 80km apart – travel is constant for John and Carol Jenner. Both churches have a Sunday service, Sunday school, Bible study and other support activities that are part of living in community. But John also says it’s refreshing not to be driven by programs, adding: “Much of our time is spent just being with people, sharing their lives as they are lived at the moment and pointing them to our loving God as we are able.”
