As my old minister Richard Goscombe has gone to work for bca (bush church aid) i thing it time to see what they do.
CA has a priority in mission to the isolated, remote urban and rural people of Australia.

BCA orders its life and ministry:

by prayer for God’s help and the Holy Spirit’s guidance;
by the vision, wisdom, authority and encouragement of Scripture;
by humility, servanthood and fellowship with the church in mission;
by interdependent relationships with Diocesan Bishops;
by providing pastoral care and professional development for staff and
by responsible management of its resources.
BCA fulfils its mission as the people of Australia are given the opportunity to know and love the Lord Jesus Christ, trust in his promises, respond to him in obedience, reflect his character in their lives, be committed to his church and work for his purpose in the world.
