Ernest and Euphemia Kramer spent 21 years taking the Christian message and practical help to the Aborigines and white settlers of Central Australia's harsh, forbidding outback.
After 10 years travelling the countryside is a flimsy cart drawn by horses or donkeys, they settled in Alice Springs. For the next 11 years Ernest spent 6 months of each year travelling the outback with 2 Aboriginal helpers and a team of camels.
Among his friends in Alice Springs were Dr John Flynn, Professors Ted Strehlow and John Cleland, Doctor Charles Duguid and Pastor Friedrich Albrecht.
In April 1977 the Kramer Memorial Church was erected in his honour in Parke Terrace, Alice Springs.
