Supporting Discipleship
Building Community
Seeking Justice

American Baptist Home Mission Societies (ABHMS) has been wrestling with questions like these since our very beginnings in the early 19th century—always imperfectly, yet hopeful that in our attempts to do so we might ever more closely model the example set for us in Christ and the kingdom he inaugurated. Our mission emphases—discipleship, community, justice—are rooted in priorities and practices of those who have come before us, and they are evident in the mission and ministry with which we are currently engaged.
