About us
We are a gathering of youth and children's workers from Baptist Churches and Unions from the length and breadth of Europe, who share a passion for sharing the good news of Jesus with children and young people. In order to make this possible we intend to support youth and children's workers through providing access to relevant resources, training and support. The European Baptist Federation has for many years been led by various elected representative committee members from EBF nations. This executive takes upon itself to offer an annual conference and training resources for the Baptist Family of churches and unions from the EBF nations.
