Asia Pacific Baptist Federation

The Asia Pacific Baptist Federation (APBF) is a regional organization of the Baptist World Alliance, a worldwide fellowship of churches that subscribe to Baptist distinctives. The APBF was formed in the then British colony of Hong Kong in 1973 as the Asian Baptist Federation (ABF).〔Asia Pacific Baptist Federation: (About APBF )〕 It adopted its current name in 2007 after a resolution was approved during the ABF Congress held in the city of Chiang Mai, Thailand from 2 May to 6 May 2007.〔Baptist World Alliance News: (Asian Federation changes name, elects new leadership )〕
== Brief history in Asia and the Pacific ==

One of the earliest Protestant missionaries to Asia was an English Baptist named William Carey who was one of the founders of the ''Particular Baptist Society for Propagating the Gospel among the Heathen'' (today known as BMS World Mission) in 1792.〔William Carey University: (Center for Study of the Life and Work of William Carey, D.D. (1761-1834) - Baptist Missionary Society )〕〔BMS World Mission: (BMS origins and early days )〕 He started his work in the Dutch controlled Serampore north of Calcutta, India in 1793, initially focussing on Bible translation, preaching, teaching, and the founding of schools. One of the major schools established by this mission is Serampore College, founded in 1818.
Other pioneers include Joshua Marshman and William Ward who together with Carey became known as the Serampore Trio. Of the three, Ward was instrumental in converting American Congregationalist missionary, Adoniram Judson, to Baptist beliefs and baptised both Judson and his wife, Ann Haseltine Judson, in Serampore.
Judson later began Baptist missionary work in Burma on 13 July 1813 upon his arrival in Rangoon.〔Glimpses of Christian History: (13 July 1813 • A Miserable, Dirty Town for the Judsons )〕 Today most countries in Asia have Baptist believers and churches.
