A new year brings new opportunities for a fresh perspective in looking forward. In 2023 BGAV celebrated 200 years of ministry and missions in Virginia and beyond, and a careful look at the past brings context and clarity to Virginia Baptists' present and future.

In his first video message for 2024, Executive Director Wayne Faison shares a hopeful vision for the year ahead with a helpful look back at the rich heritage that brought BGAV to this point, with a clear calling from God and a consistent focus on its core values.
