Laying the Foundation


During the early 20th century, the NBA flourished, growing to 12 homes and becoming a more established, independent institution within the denomination. The ministry experienced trying times as well, amidst economic depression and a nation twice at war. Celebrating 50 years of benevolence in 1937, the NBA persevered, continuing to serve “the least of these.”
