About Us

The Evangelical Baptist Convention (EBC) was born in 1948 at a little village called Sialbu in Southern Manipur, India. The pioneer Christians themselves reached their own tribes men with the gospel with much opposition from the village chiefs and the public. The amazing thing is that within 3 decades 95% of the entire region was Christianized.
