Who we are

"For the love of Christ urges us on...."
2 Corinthians 5:14-15

As part of American Baptist Churches USA, American Baptist Home Mission Societies answers God's call to live out Christian faith and transform individuals, congregations and communities through developing Christ-centered leaders, networks and programs committed to witness and evangelism, social justice, discipleship and mission work across the United States and Puerto Rico.

This means that more than 1,300 mission partners, working with American Baptist Home Mission Societies, minister to those in need — emotional, physical, financial and spiritual — every day as chaplains and pastoral counselors, refugee sponsors, directors of Christian centers, volunteers and new church planters. These mission partners are on the front lines of faith, bringing God's love to those who need it most: families trapped in poverty, older folk struggling with illness and loneliness, pastors planting churches in growing neighborhoods, Sunday school teachers and youth ministers guiding and encouraging children to grow in faith.

The work of American Baptist Home Mission Societies reaches from Alabama to Alaska, Pennsylvania to Puerto Rico, and so much further — to the deepest parts of the human heart. You'll find our story on the pages of this Web site. See for yourself all that we are.
