Mission Profile

David & Joanne Piper

Daniel (2010) Luke (2012) Matthew (2016)

Serving with BCA since January 2025

Those of you who have been BCA supporters for some time, will remember that the Piper family served with us in Lightning Ridge from 2013–2019. Since then, the family has served in Gunnedah in the Northwest Slopes Region of New South Wales. While both David & Joanne grew up in Sydney, they really enjoy working in the bush and are keen to serve in remote locations because of the great need there. "We're excited to be here in Emerald and Blackwater; getting to know the congregations and the towns, and looking forward to working with them to sow the Good News and grow fruitful followers," said David.

Pray for the Pipers

July
Thank God for our kids program (‘Truth Trackers’). Pray that parents will commit to bringing their children along, and that we will disciple them well. We also ask for wisdom in helping parents disciple their children.
