The AWF is a consultative fellowship uniting 45 national churches and representing over 2.4 million inclusive members and 14,500 churches. It grew out of regional conferences beginning in 1955 in Asia and organized formally in 1975 in Nyack, New York. It meets every four years in a different part of the world. The last quadrennial was held in 2000 in Hong Kong.

Founded originally for mutual encouragement and counsel in developing strong national churches, the fellowship grew increasingly concerned about the world evangelization. The first executive director, dr. Benjamin P. de Jésus, was elected in 1991 during the quadrennial conference in Côte d'Ivoirre, West Africa.

In 2000, during the quadrennial in Hong Kong, it was decided to give a more important role to the different world-regions. The AWF Executive Committee consists of the Regional Coordinators who were elected in Hong Kong.

"There was a rainbow around the throne,
in appearance like an emerald." Rev. 4:3
The rainbow indicates that this precious stone reflects more than one color.
It is like the diversity of peoples within "our" region.
Let it be our desire to see all these peoples together may shine as a rainbow,
a colorful emerald, around the throne of God, with just one desire: to magnify our Creator and Savior!
