Networking the Baptist family to impact the world for Christ.
Programs
The Baptist World Alliance involves five main areas of ministry - Freedom and Justice, where we oppose racism at every level and defend religious freedom, standing up for the oppressed around the world; Evangelism and Education, taking the gospel of Jesus Christ to the world and helping to train indigenous pastors and evangelists; Aid where we feed hungry people and sponsor disaster relief and development programs; Fellowship where we unite Baptists in mission and create opportunities for sharing our gifts, and Theological Reflection, in which we thoughtfully study, consider, and publish theological papers on the Baptist perspective to questions of life.
