Since its organization in 1845 in Augusta, Georgia, the Southern Baptist Convention (SBC) has
grown to over 16 million members who worship in more than 42,000 churches in the United
States. Southern Baptists sponsor about 5,000 home missionaries serving the United States,
Canada, Guam and the Caribbean, as well as sponsoring more than 5,000 foreign missionaries in
153 nations of the world.

The term "Southern Baptist Convention" refers to both the denomination and its annual meeting.
Working through 1,200 local associations and 41 state conventions and fellowships, Southern
Baptists share a common bond of basic Biblical beliefs and a commitment to proclaim the Gospel
of Jesus Christ to the entire world.
