About Bathurst
Wiradjuri Country

BCA has worked with the Diocese of Bathurst to fund a minister-in-training position in the Diocese. The role is to provide a pathway for new college graduates to train for future ministry. After being announced in 2020, the partnership has supported Steven & Caitlin Klouth in 2021-2022, then James & Charly Boardman in 2023-2024.

Pray for the Yemms

August
Pray for Rob as he begins planning a men’s day away. Pray that God gives him wisdom as to what the men of Bathurst Anglican need to hear from the Bible. Pray also that it would be an encouraging time away that equips these men in the work of the Gospel.
