William Kamm, self-proclaimed as "The Little Pebble," founded a controversial religious group in New South Wales that later became widely known as the "Little Pebble Cult." Kamm claimed to have direct communication with the Virgin Mary and predicted various apocalyptic events, leading to a devoted following among his community. The sect, based on the South Coast of New South Wales, drew international attention for its extreme beliefs and practices, including Kamm’s claims to have prophetic powers and to be chosen to father a new generation after an impending apocalypse.
In 2005, Kamm was convicted of sexual assault, further exposing the inner workings of the cult and leading to widespread condemnation. The revelations led to legal restrictions and protections for vulnerable members within religious organizations. Kamm’s imprisonment marked a turning point, though the effects of his influence continue to linger, with the case highlighting the psychological and social impact of coercive control within closed religious communities.
Join Holly and Matthew on this multi-part series examining the cult, their practices and their preacher.
