Mission Profile

Tom & Tanya Killingbeck

Calimë (2004) Tristan (2007) Chiara (2009)

Serving with BCA since September 2025

Tom & Tanya Killingbeck lead the faithful on King Island. “I believe that Tanya, our kids and I are in a good place to contribute to the mission of BCA, as we are fundamentally country folk, and we fundamentally believe the Gospel is urgently required in hard-to-reach places like the bush,” says Tom. “Tanya's skills as an early childhood educator will be a great asset on the island, and I have the training and experience to operate as a minister in a remote location as we've done such ministry before, although not as remote.”

Thank God for one year of ministry on the Island, and for His grace and favour with the church and the community. Thank God for the support of BCA leadership, partner churches and for the flow-on effects of recharging at the BCA Field Staff Conference!
