Neville Callam has been elected as the new General Secretary Elect of the Baptist World Alliance (BWA).

Callam's groundbreaking election to the office of General Secretary took place during the BWA General Council meeting in Accra, Ghana, in West Africa earlier this month.

Callam, a Jamaican, is the first person outside of Europe or North America to be elected to the high office of General Secretary, making him the Chief Executive Officer of one of the largest Protestant church bodies in the world.
