BWA Executive Committee Resolution 1968-08.6

Whereas, 1969 will be a year of unusual emphasis on evangelism in various constituent bodies of the Baptist World Alliance Fellowship;

Be it therefore resolved that we renew our consecration to the work of evangelism, evangelism being understood to involve both the redemption of the individual, that individual’s growth in Christian character and service, and his involvement as a Christian in the broad spectrum of the life of his total environment.

The resolution was adopted.
