A New Name for the ABA?

It seems there is a lot of interest in changing the name of our association. Finding the right name might become the greater challenge. Enabling associations of other countries to fellowship alongside of the ABA would require, I believe, a name that embraces all of our bretheren internationally. We have had some interesting suggestions, but so far nothing stand out. Send your suggestions our way and let's see what kind of name best suits our entire associated work.

I like International Baptist Association.

wouldn't it be great if the first meeting of the new named "IBA" was actually in a foreign country! Think of the impact and encouragement that would be to our works in Mexico if we actually had the "IBA" or even "ABA" meeting in Mexico City.

Considering ABA distinctives and the ones voting:
(MBIF)Missionary Baptist International Fellowship

No preconceived notions:

1.(BMI) Baptist Missions International

2. (GVIF) Global Vision International Fellowship

Just for humor:

1.Universal Missionary Baptist Fellowship

2. Scriptural Landmark Baptist International Fellowship

3. Traditional Baptist International Fellowship

4. USA & Beyond Baptist Fellowship

5. Global Ana Baptist Fellowship

I would like World Wide Baptist Association

I really like this one, and I've added an accompanying slogan.

Landmark Association of Missionary Baptists (LAMB): churches proclaiming "the Lamb of God, which taketh away the sin of the world." (John 1:29 KJV)

There is nothing wrong with the ABA name. Changing it is not the answer.
