History

Show on the life of Jesus at Igreja da Cidade in São José dos Campos, affiliated to the Convention, 2017.

The Brazilian Baptist Convention has its origins in the establishment of the first Baptist Church in Salvador (Bahia) in 1882, by an American mission of the International Mission Board.[1] It was founded in 1907.[2] According to a census published by the association in 2023, it claimed 9,070 churches and 1,797,597 members. [3]

Social programs

The Convention coordinates several social programs, through the "Missões Nacionais" especially for the rehabilitation of drug addicts, dance and sports and for young people from disadvantaged neighborhoods and housing orphaned children. [4]

Royal Ambassadors

The 'Embaixadores do Rei' organization (Royal Ambassadors in English) has a significant presence in the denomination. It is responsible for the missionary and vocational awakening of pastors throughout 70 years of existence in Brazil.

Schools

The convention has 17 affiliated primary and secondary schools gathered in the Rede Batista de Educação. [5]

It has 3 affiliated theological institutes. [6]

Controversies

In 1965, the Convention proceeded to the excommunication of 165 churches teaching the beliefs of the charismatic movement. [7]
