American Baptist Churches, USA is our larger family, consisting of more than 1.2 million members across almost 5000 congregations.  We are committed to national, regional and international ministries in cooperation with this denominational family.  We support them financially and with membership involvement.  We look to them for fellowship, assistance in pastoral searches, and as a spiritual family where we can share in a larger ministry to the world and with the world.

A brief summary of American Baptist tradition and practice is described in "10 Facts You Should Know about American Baptists" (also available en espanol). (These are PDF files; you may need to install the free Acrobat Reader to view them.)
