Shalom House Perth WA

Shalom House Perth WA Shalom House is Leading the way in Australia in “Rehabilitation, Reintegration & Re-Socialisation”.

The West Australian Shalom Group is a not for profit charitable organization which has as its main function, the oversight of Shalom House. Shalom House is a residential rehabilitations centre for men, women & families located in the Swan Valley of WA, specializing in the treatment of drug and alcohol related ailments as well as other life-controlling problems. It was founded in 2012 by Peter Lyndon James, who had spent many years in and out of Children's Homes, Institutions and prisons for crimes which were the result of his drug addiction. It is built on the belief that every person can break free from addiction and that addiction is not a consequence of choice, but recovery is. Its aim is to restore to full functionality in the lives of men, women & families who choose the recovery option. As well as residential drug and alcohol rehabilitation, the West Australian Shalom Group has other community outreach services available for residents within the program in the Perth Metropolitan region. These have been structured to meet the needs of men, women & families in our community where traditionally those needs have been downplayed or ignored by society. They provide a safe and confidential environment for men, women & families to be able to speak about their life experiences and the personal battles they face without fear of criticism, and to get the emotional support that comes from finding that many others share the same battles. In sharing their experiences and finding solutions to the problems through the sharing, lives are changed, marriages restored, and people can rise up into their full potential.

Shalom small motors continues to deliver a high quality of tidiness. Not just in the workshop, but also the grounds and surrounds, of the Lexia property area.

We are always busy performing a wide variety of tasks.

This week we finished and painted a new welding trolly, fabricated from scratch, by the metals workshop team.

We love to teach the younger generation all the skills we have learned over the time whilst living at Shalom.

There is no age barrier or limits on experience, for anyone to come and learn here.

A CHANGE OF SCENERY

The first week of the year and we had just started to settle back into the daily routine. Getting home from work and knowing that there were no days off until the weekend.

The left over Christmas food had been eaten and the decorations pulled down. New Year’s Eve had come and gone and after you think, Did it really happen? Back to normal we thought.

Friday comes around and instead of going to Global Heart Church as we usually do, we find out that we’re doing a major house clean and everyone is moving between houses on Saturday!

All the fellas have to start packing their gear and clean the living areas of the house. The next day we finish packing early in the morning and then clean our rooms ready for the next residents.

The list had been read the night before and everyone knew what house they were going to be in and who else would be there. With anticipation in the air everyone waited beside their belongings to get picked up by the bus.

A New Year, a new house, a new season and a different group of fellas. Our journey continues with a change of scenery.

NEW BEGINNINGS IN MEDICAL

This week, the medical team returned refreshed and energised after our festive break, still carrying the warmth of summer. Our workspace has been refreshed and reorganised, leaving it clean, inviting, and ready for a positive start to the new working year.

Claudia who has now been a part of the medical team for 10 months has moved into the 1IC role in the office, working alongside Barbara. Claudia has a passion for the medical department, loving the interaction and opportunities to liaise with new residents and she is also hoping to start studying for nursing at a later stage so this role is giving her opportunities to learn basic skills as contact with Medical Practitioners and Hospital Departments is a frequent requirement of this role.

Our newest member to the medical team, Chloe, received a surprise visit from her mother and two of her children last week and it was smiles all around in the office as we git to meet them.

We are all focused and looking forward to the challenges each new week will bring.

‘Jarrod Wheelhouse Graduates’

On Saturday 3/1/2026 Jarrod Wheelhouse graduated the Shalom House program. Jarrod the third eldest of 6 flew over from Dubbo in NSW. Jarrod on the outside looked like he had a normal family but behind closed doors it was dysfunctional. He was bullied throughout school and in turn became a bully himself. He would take his families cars for joy rides and break into places.

In 2017 is addiction started after an accident left him unable to work and addicted to Endone. He got to the point where he no longer knew who he was and eventuated to losing more than just a job. This led to a co***ne addiction and depression spiralling down to where he reached out to Shalom as at first he just wanted to get away from everyone.

Since being here, Jarrod has regained who is as a person and loves the person who he sees in the mirror. His relationships with his family have become more bonded than ever, where they now enjoy each others company. His confidence has increased being stronger than ever and his big heart has been able to now shine. His biggest growth started 2 weeks into the program where he volunteered to go to the Kalgoorlie program where he spent his time before it closed and moved back to Perth.

The last 6 months Jarrod has spent his time back in Kalgoorlie working for Elevation Landscapes. Which is a business run by Craig who was part of the Kalgoorlie Shalom team. Now that he’s graduated he hasn’t said goodbye as he has committed atleast 4 years working with Craig at Elevation Landscapes. Which will be helping the community around Kalgoorlie with all the landscaping needs.

We wish Jarrod all the best with his life not just in the near future but beyond.

BLESSED

This morning the Shalom Men attended the 10am service at Mt Helena Bible Baptist church.

We were all welcomed by the wonderful congregation with tea coffee and fellowship. The service then began with old hymns sung with a guitar followed by a testimony from David McDonald who has been very committed to changing his life over the past 12 months.

His testimony shows that he has committed to Shalom, the hardships his has faced, and how Shalom House has helped change his life for the better.

Pastor Andrew then preached on the books of Ezekiel and Romans. Focusing on idolatry and how people perceive God, when God is really the word and cannot be compared to anything in this world that he created.

After we were blessed with great food and more fellowship giving the guys an opportunity to share their testimonies. How Shalom has helped change and enrich their lives, and shown them that there is hope for their future and recovery for people stuck in addiction.

Shalom House has really changed men’s lives restoring connection with families and loved ones who were stuck in addiction and a life of darkness, it shows them that people can change.

It is truely a blessing to be apart of this journey at Shalom House shining the light for people stuck in addiction

GROWTH IN OUR CHILDREN

The last few days our Families Program has been full of fun, connection and gratitude.

We spent the end of the week at Lollipops Playcentre with some of the kids enjoying lots of laughs and fun. On Saturday we were blessed to head over to the ladies’ house for a pool party and BBQ. It was such a great day. The kids swimming in the pool, everyone enjoying beautiful food and sharing laughs with the ladies.

For me personally, it was really special watching my kids at this year’s pool party compared to last year. Some of our kids were so much younger then, and it wasn’t always easy with tantrums and big emotions. Seeing how much they’ve grown, how confident they are now, swimming and doing things themselves, is truly amazing.

Being present for these milestones as a sober mum is the best feeling in the world.

We are all so incredibly grateful to call Shalom our home and to be part of a program that supports families, healing, and real growth.

SEASON OF CHANGE

This weekend the fellas had a Friday night of cleaning, in preparation for the Saturday event, a major house move.

Seasons come and seasons go in the Shalom House program, and now is a time for change. The idea is to not get comfortable, because comfortability begets complacency.

Complacency is a roadblock on the journey of personal growth and care is to ensure its absence.

So the men move around the different properties, mixing new combinations of personalities with new leadership structures.

First the men conduct a major house clean, an extremely thorough clean that readies the houses for the next lot of residents to move in. Then the rest of the day is spent packing belongings and moving to the new houses and rooms that have been allocated.

To the men in the program, this marks the beginning of a new season with new opportunities for learning and personal development. Exciting times for this community of men with the shared goal of recovery.

BENNETT SPRINGS POOL PARTY 🎈🎈🎈

After completing Saturday morning major house clean the ladies & families packed their hats, bathers and towels then headed to Bennet Springs house for some fun in the sun & a dip in the pool.

Lunch was a collective effort from all the ladies.
We all enjoyed a bbq with fresh salads, baked frittata and finished off with cheese cake & fresh fruit.

There was board games being played while others enjoyed a movie. It was a day full of fellowshipping and laughter.
Swimming & sitting poolside watching the the kids play in excitement brought great joy to all the ladies.

With so many new residents coming in over Christmas & the new year, it really shows how events like this really reflects what Shalom House & it’s program is all about-
Love, unity & support.

“GOT MY LR LICENSE”

Congratulations to Ashley who passed and obtained his LR License. He has been busy the last month with lessons to prepare him for this test.

Ashley has been in the program for just under 3 months. He is currently working as a 2IC of The Block and has the privilege of coming alongside the new residents in the program and helping them adjust to their new environment.

He has shown that perseverance, determination and patience is important with achieving success.

Now having his LR license, Ashley is able to put back a lot more into the program by helping drive all the fellas to and from site every morning, as well as driving the bus on the weekends to transport them to the various events they attend.

We appreciate your efforts Ashley and the way you want to give back to Shalom and it’s residents.
