Laurie & Bec Carleton

Olivia (2013) Claudia (2015) Harry (2017)

Serving with BCA since January 2022

Laurie & Bec Carleton, together with their children Olivia, Claudia and Harry serve at the Church of England on Norfolk Island. The Island has a rich Christian history but the Carletons pray that God will use their ministry, and that of the Christians there, to grow his kingdom. BCA provides pastoral care and prayer support for the family.

Located about 1400 kms off the coast of Australia, Norfolk Island is an external territory of Australia located between New Zealand and New Caledonia. At the 2021 Census the Island has about 2200 permanent residents, evenly split between Norfolk Islanders, Australians and New Zealanders.

The Carleton's Prayer Points for March 2025

Give thanks to God for our Kids’ Club and UNIT Youth ministries. As our combined churches youth minister finished up at the end of 2024, please pray that God would raise up the right person to take on this role.

The Carleton's Prayer Points for April 2025

Thank God for the opportunity to share the Good News of Jesus within the community through our Easter activities. Please ask that God will work in the lives of many on our Island to bring them to a saving knowledge of Jesus.

The Carleton's Prayer Points for May 2025

Please pray that God will use us as a family to minister effectively to His people on Norfolk Island and that we would be the light of Christ to the lost.
