You are correct about the official statement, and that is why I was intrigued to notice the disparity between the official statement and practice. My question is are they ignoring the fact that a large number of churches they count as members of the SBC ordain women anyway.
It certainly looks that way.
And this:
The BGAV joined the Baptist World Alliance in 2004 after the Southern Baptist Convention pulled out of the alliance.[11] At the time, BGAV Executive Director John V. Upton, Jr., said, "Virginia Baptists have been a part of the BWA since its beginning in 1905. Our membership up to this point had been through the Southern Baptist Convention (SBC). The decision of the SBC to leave the BWA has automatically removed our membership. In this annual meeting Virginia Baptists have overwhelmingly voted to maintain that historic and strategic relationship."[11] The BGAV contributes more to the Baptist World Alliance (BWA) than does any convention or union in the world.[12]
In 2006, the BGAV received some Georgia Baptist churches requesting affiliation across the border.[13] The move is unusual for Southern Baptist churches which almost universally affiliate with conventions in their states or region. But it represents a growing interest in denominational links by affinity rather than geography, say some observers.[14]
