Canadian Baptist Ministries
Canadian Baptist Ministries (CBM; French: Ministères Baptistes Canadiens) is a mainline Protestant and Baptist denomination in Canada. It is a member of the Baptist World Alliance. The headquarters is located in Mississauga, Ontario.
The first Baptist church in present-day Canada was founded by an American Baptist minister in Sackville, New Brunswick, in 1763. More churches were founded throughout Nova Scotia, New Brunswick, Lower Canada, and Upper Canada by Loyalist American ministers and itinerant preachers.
The first Canadian-born Baptist missionary was Rev. Samuel S. Day. He was sent to India in 1835 by the Baptist Board for Foreign Missions (BBFM), the foreign missionary organization of the American Triennial Convention (now American Baptist Churches USA). Canadian Baptist churches in the Maritime provinces had been supporting the work of Adoniram Judson in Burma since 1814. In 1845, these churches, before establishing the Baptist Convention of the Maritime Provinces (MBC), sent out Rev. R.E. Burpee, along with his wife Laleah, to Burma, under the auspices of the BBFM.
In 1866, the Foreign Missions Board, renamed as American Baptist Missionary Union (ABMU) right after the Southern schism, appointed A.V. Timpany to be sent to India. That prompted the establishment of a Canadian auxiliary to the American Missionary Union by the Maritime Provinces Convention in 1866.
In 1869, the Canadian auxiliary was reorganised as the Regular Baptist Foreign Missionary Society of Canada, and in 1889 was renamed as The Board of Foreign Missions of the Regular Baptist Convention of Ontario and Quebec.
In 1874, the Canadian Baptist Foreign Missionary Society was founded in Ontario.
The Canadian Baptist Foreign Mission Board (CBFMB) was founded in 1912. It was renamed as Canadian Baptist Overseas Missions Board (CBOMB) on May 1, 1970, and later as Canadian Baptist International Ministries (CBIM) in 1990.
Efforts to form a national Baptist ecclesiastical body date back to 1900. Delegates from across Canada met in Winnipeg and established the National Baptist Convention of Canada. Inexplicably, the Convention never met again. As such, no national Baptist organization existed in Canada for a long time until 1944. In that year, the Baptist Federation of Canada (BFC) was established at Saint John, New Brunswick by the Canadian Baptists of Ontario and Quebec (CBOQ), the Canadian Baptists of Western Canada (CBWC), and the Canadian Baptists of Atlantic Canada (CBAC). They were joined by the Union of French Baptist Churches of Canada in 1970.
