James & Charly Boardman

Elijah (2017) Joshua (2019) Hannah (2021)

Serving with BCA since January 2023

James, Charly, Elijah, Joshua & Hannah Boardman moved from Sydney to Bathurst in January 2023. James completed a Bachelor of Divinity at Moore College in 2022 and serves with BCA as a ministry trainee at the Cathedral Parish in the Diocese of Bathurst. James & Charly are excited to see the ways God grows them in maturity and what opportunities He will grant them to testify to His glory.

Bathurst is Australia’s oldest inland settlement and was the site of the country’s first gold discovery. BCA works together with the Diocese of Bathurst to fund a student minister in the Diocese. We previously supported Steven Klouth and he now serves with BCA and the diocese in West Wyalong. The aim of this role is to provide a pathway for new college graduates to train for future ministry.

The Boardman's Prayer Points for September 2025

Please pray for us to be bold in inviting people to our five-week evangelistic course entitled Hymns we Love and our Bicentennial organ recital featuring those five hymns played by a prominent Sydney organist.

The Boardman's Prayer Points for October 2025
