What the Union of the women baptists?
UFB encourages the women belonging to our Federation of Churches in France in:
- meet (ladies' meetings in the local church)
- know itself (meetings inter-churches, regional and national)
- unite in request (on the occasion of the worldwide day of requests)
She allows cooperation with other Christian female organisations of Europe and of the world. It is a regular link with EBWU (Union of the women baptists Europeans), BWA (Department of the women of Alliance Worldwide Baptist).
She wants to emphasise the role of the women in the family, in their service within our local churches. But also in our regions, in the Federation, as well as encourage the writings of MBE and of ABEJ.
A little of history:
In 1948, in destroyed Europe, bléssée and divided further to World War II, a feminine group from six different countries meets in London to try to pray together. This time driven by the Holy Ghost was the first steps towards forgiveness, beginning of a reconciliation, and a call to request.
So the first worldwide day of requests in 1950 was born.

The Union of the women baptists of France will come into the world in 1958.
