*National Baptist Convention of America, Inc.

The National Baptist Convention of America, Incorporated (NBCA), is a fellowship of voluntary churches approximating one and half million African-American Baptists whose initial roots stemmed from the organization of the Foreign Mission Baptist Convention of the United States. The focus of the NBCA, since its inception and prior to its incorporation status, has been upon education, missions (home and abroad) and the publication and circulation of religious literature.
