Baptist Young People's Union of America
The Baptist Young Peoples Union of America (BYPUA) was an organization designed to foster Christian growth and loyalty, and was a successor to the 1887 Loyalist Movement led by O. W. Van Osdel. The objectives of the BYPUA were six fold: unification of Baptist young people, increased spirituality, stimulation in Christian service, edification in Scripture knowledge, instruction in Baptist doctrine and history, and enlistment in missionary activity through existing denominational organization. The national organization encouraged weekly meetings, daily Bible readings, and study courses for local groups using literature published alternately between the BYPUA and the American Baptist Publication Society. Titles included the Loyalist (1890), Young Peoples Work (1890), Young Peoples Union (1891), Baptist Union (1893), Service (1904), The Junior Baptist Union (1898), and Our Juniors (1904).
