In 2023, the Baptist World Alliance is excited to collaborate with European Baptist Federation to offer an incredible global experience in Stavanger, Norway. From July 2-9, global Baptist leaders are invited to experience two dynamic events:

1. 2023 Baptist World Alliance Annual Gathering
2. “SENT” Global Mission Summit.

During this incredible annual event, Baptist leaders from across the globe will connect through worship, prayer, learning, relationship building, and shared ministry. We will also grow together as we engage in plenaries, Bible studies, regional ministry updates, and small group reflections developed by 14 BWA Commissions.

We will hear from gifted keynote speakers as well as insightful Bible study and seminar leaders, collectively listening for God’s voice in directing us in our mission for the future. We will accept the challenge of putting into practice all we have been learning about church and mission through the COVID-19 crisis.

Through inspiring worship, prayer times, and sharing meals together, we want to encourage and support one another, building our friendships across nations, cultures, and languages – expressing our solidarity in Jesus Christ who unites us all together.
