  • 2020 Yearbook
    2020 YEARBOOK STANDING TOGETHER BY STAYING CONNECTED DIRECTORY GENERAL COUNCIL MINUTES STATISTICS NETWORKING THE BAPTIST FAMILY TO IMPACT THE WORLD FOR CHRIST Dear Brothers and Sisters, The Baptist World Alliance mission statement is “Networking the Baptist family to impact the world for Christ.” Core to this endeavor are ongoing efforts to strengthen relationships and ministry partnerships within the BWA family. Annually, since the late 1920s, the BWA has produced a Yearbook that is today shared with the conventions, unions, associations, and Baptist leaders actively involved in the BWA’s multifaceted ministry “to impact the world for Christ.” Across four sections, the Yearbook details the BWA organizational leadership and member bodies, provides the official account of the proceedings of BWA General Council meetings and the annual statistics of Baptists around the world, publishes financial statements and contribution reports as part of a commitment to financial integrity and transparency, and concludes with a directory of BWA Baptist leaders currently serving on BWA committees and commissions. The Yearbook is provided with the conviction that we are biblically called to encounter one another in loving fellowship and joyful collaboration. While asking for the responsible utilization of included information, it is expected that the Yearbook will enhance ministry partnerships. It is also hoped that the Yearbook will challenge us to pray more concretely for one another and to make direct contact that expresses solidarity with any BWA Baptist experiencing sorrow, hardship, or joy of any kind. May the Lord continue to richly bless you and BWA Baptists around the world. Thank you for your partnership in the mission of God.

  • The First 25 Years 1992 – 2017 History of the First Twenty-Five Years of Cooperative Baptist Fellowship Virginia
    Cooperative Baptist Fellowship Virginia The First 25 Years 1992 – 2017 History of the First Twenty-Five Years of Cooperative Baptist Fellowship Virginia Formation of CBF Following a decade of frustrating denominational politics in the Southern Baptist Convention, a gathering of moderate Baptists in Atlanta, Georgia, led to the formation of the Cooperative Baptist Fellowship (CBF) in 1991. Seeking to uphold historic Baptist values and freedoms, this purpose statement was approved: The Cooperative Baptist Fellowship is a fellowship of Baptist Christians and churches who share a passion for the Great Commission of Jesus Christ and a commitment to Baptist principles of faith and practice. Our mission is to serve Christians and churches as they discover and fulfill their God-given mission. CBFVA – The Early Years We tell the story of CBFVA’s early years from the perspective of Eddie Freeman, pastor at Monument Heights Baptist Church in Richmond and Broadus Memorial Baptist Church in Charlottesville and Moderator of CBFVA from 1994-1995. Eddie thought it important to capture the first three years of CBFVA’s story. Here are his words. May 10, 1991 During the first General Assembly of CBF, meeting in Atlanta, the Virginia participants in open forum elected the first members of the national CBF Coordinating Council from Virginia. Robert Rainwater was subsequently chosen by the Virginia Council members as their spokesperson. May 1, 1992 At the second General Assembly meeting in Fort Worth, a Virginia CBF organization was authorized by vote of the Virginia participants in the state caucus meeting. In order to keep the structure simple, the Virginia participants elected the six national council members from Virginia to serve concurrently as the first organizing committee for Virginia CBF.

  • Southern Baptist Convention 1958
    Press Room - Southern Baptist Convention Release: 7:40 P.M. 1958 - Houston Coliseum Monday, May 19 Albert McClellan, Press Representative Theo Sommerkamp, Assistant mDMY SHEEP --by R. Paul Caudill Jesus had tried to prepare the disciples for His approaching death, but He had failed. They continued to loolr for a miraculous demonstration of His de- livering power, When the twelve decided to go with Him all the way, they knew what He could do. With His miraculous power He could feed an army; IIe could heal the sick; He could raise the dead, But His death, at the hands of His enemies, was too much for them. Consequently, at the time of the crucifixion, all of the disciples fled, and became as broken straws, slinking among the shadows. Obviously the kingdom would not be restored to Israel. Everything was gone! Only Peter had the courage to accompany Jesus to His mock trial, but even then he kept his distance and lied about knowing Him. Peter therefore dicided to return to his old fishing business. After all, what was there to do henceforth but fish? The other disciples dccided they would go, too. They would a11 begin where they had left off, and start life over again. After a night of fishing, they beheld Jeaus on the strand--the space on the beach where the waves break between the high and the low tide. Jesus called to them, "Hey, bays, have you any fish?" Not recognizing Him they replied, "No." At His direction, they let down their nets and brought to land a record catch, Then they recognized Him.

    UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA RIVERSIDE Quiet Confrontations: Transnational Advocacy Networks, Local Churches, and the Pursuit of Religious Freedoms in China A Dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Political Science by Yun Wang June 2013 Dissertation Committee: Dr. Juliann Allison, Co-Chairperson Dr. Bronwyn Leebaw, Co-Chairperson Dr. Yuhki Tajima Copyright by Yun Wang 2013 The Dissertation of Yun Wang is approved: Committee Co-Chairperson Committee Co-Chairperson University of California, Riverside DEDICATION For my friends and people who fight for their beliefs and freedoms in the United States, Taiwan, China and everywhere. For my families, my mom and my love who supported me all these years. iv ABSTRACT OF THE DISSERTATION Quiet Confrontations: Transnational Advocacy Networks, Local Churches, and the Pursuit of Religious Freedoms in China by Yun Wang Doctor of Philosophy, Graduate Program in Political Science University of California, Riverside, June 2013 Dr. Juliann Allison, Co-Chairperson Dr. Bronwyn Leebaw, Co-Chairperson My dissertation project explores the question of how activist networks operate in a highly repressive country when outside intervention is restrained. People have seen how effectively the Chinese Communist Party has cracked down on transnational religious activisms sponsored by Falun Gong, the exiled Tibetan government, and the Catholic Church. Nevertheless, Protestant advocacy groups from the United States and elsewhere enter China each year, despite the fact that the Party has stated that no Chinese church is allowed to receive any form of foreign support. I argue that understanding this variation in the success of transnational religious networks sheds light on the significance of an approach to transnational collaboration that is quite different from the “naming and shaming” strategy that dominates the literature on advocacy networks.

    - 2 ­ These Younger "churches vary widely in degree of independence and autonomy, spiritual and economic maturity, and strength of indigenous leadershipD We have not attempted to list the missionary agency or agencies with which each indigenous church group has been associated] since such material can be found elsewhere and the purpose of this study is to emphasize the emerging responsible church bodies in their various stages of growth. Exact statistics of membership are always difficult to se­ cure and when available may be interpreted in different ways. We have attempted to give only round numbers, based upon the most recent data available in the Missionary Research Library. "Membership" means adult baptized members and does not include baptized children. "Corrununity" means members and their families and] also.\' cate­ chumens or inquirers. We realize that the statistics are not fully reliable, but we believe that they will furnish a fair picture of the Younger Church movement. Under the heading, "Missionaries from the Younger Churches]" we have surrunarized such in­ formation as we could secure regarding missionaries being sent out from younger church bodies to other countries and peoples. This is a most significant new de­ velopment. Church bodies which are members of the World Council of Churches are marked #0 We hope that this List of Younger Churches will be of help to all who are study­ ing the growth of world-wide Christianity. We would be glad to receive corrections and suggestions for revision. We wish to thank all who have helped in the preparation of this Study and those who have read the manuscript in whole or in partD Mr.

  • And SBC Agencies, 2
    1964 Sauthern Baptist Convention For Release: 10:35 A.M. Convention Hall, Atlantic City, N. J Thursday, May 21 W. C. Fields, Press Representative Theo Sommerkamp, Press Room Manager Annuity Board Report Retired Minis ter Allowed To Serve A new option allowing a retired minister to serve a church and still continue to get his retirement income from the Annuity Board was revealed in that agency's 1964 report to the Southern Baptist Convention. R. Altan Reed, executive secretary of the Annuity Board, located in Dallas, told SBC messengers a retired person now may choose to serve as interim, supply or tem- porary pastor under either a time or compensation option. Previously, a retired person could serve only on a time option. The new compensation option allows a retired minister to eaxn up to $1,500 during any 12-month period. His compensation may include cash salary, car expense, transportation, house rent, etc, , Reed said. The time option, initiated several years ago, remains the same. A person who retires at age 65 may serve a church for three months without affecting his retirement income. The time increases as follows: age 66, five months; 67, seven; 68, nine; 69, ten; 70, eleven; and 71 years or older, 12 months. "The Annuity Board approved the options so retired persons may continue to serve the denomination, especially in pioneer areas and continue to receive their age retirement annuity," Reed said. Reed, in his tenth annual report to the messengers, said the year 1963 was a I I highly successful year of operation: for the Board.
