Mission Profile

Ruth & Lee Walton

Serving with BCA since January 2021


Ruth & Lee Walton moved to Darwin in September 2020 for Ruth to take up a role at Nungalinya College in early 2021. As Anglican Dean, Ruth seeks to develop supportive relationships with Indigenous students so that they can succeed in their studies, grow in faith and return to their home church ready to serve.

Nungalinya College is a combined churches training college for Indigenous Australians. The College trains men and women for leadership roles in churches and communities by exploring the Bible and Christian faith contextually. Students are trained to understand and participate healthily in community life while strengthening and celebrating Indigenous identity. Approximately 95% of the student intake is from remote communities across the NT, WA, QLD, and down into SA.
