Baptist World Alliance

The Baptist World Alliance (BWA) is an international organization that brings together various Baptist churches and groups from around the globe. Founded in 1905, its mission is to promote unity, cooperation, and the shared faith of Baptists, who emphasize individual faith and baptism by immersion. The BWA focuses on evangelism, social justice, and humanitarian efforts, supporting member organizations in their work. It serves as a platform for dialogue and collaboration among Baptists in different cultures and contexts, helping to foster a global Baptist identity while addressing issues such as poverty, education, and religious freedom.
