Baptist Bible Fellowship International
The Baptist Bible Fellowship International (BBFI) is a separatist, fundamentalist Baptist organization formed in 1950 by members who broke away from the World Baptist Fellowship as the result of a leadership dispute with J. Frank Norris.
It is headquartered in Springfield, Missouri. In North America there are 4,500 congregations totaling 1.2 million members associated with it; an additional 10,000 churches are associated worldwide.〔(National Council of Churches' ''Yearbook of American and Canadian Churches'' )〕
==Founding and history==
In 1948, George Beauchamp Vick (Norris' co-pastor in Detroit, Michigan) became president of the World Baptist Fellowship owned Bible Baptist Seminary of Fort Worth, Texas. In May 1950, Norris had Vick removed from the school presidency. After Vick officially resigned from the WBF, he and Noel Smith, W. E. Dowell Sr., R. O. Woodworth, Fred Donnelson, and other pastors met in the Texas Hotel and laid groundwork for a new fellowship. The organizational meeting for what would become BBFI was held in 1950 at the Central Baptist Church in Denton, Texas.〔http://www.cbcdenton.com/index.php/church-history.html〕
Approximately 100 pastors and missionaries were among the founders of the new Baptist group. They chose Springfield, Missouri as their headquarters and started the Baptist Bible College, the (Baptist Bible Tribune ), and a (Missions Office ) to serve as a clearinghouse for missionary support. In the years that have passed since those early days, it has grown into the largest independent Baptist Missionary organization in the world.
