| | | We began as a dissenting voice in Baptist life 23 years ago. Today we are the voices of progressive Christians seeking to respond to the continuing call of God in a rapidly changing world.
These beautiful smiling faces belong to the fourteen volunteers who participated in the Alliance's first Summer Communities of Service project in collaboration with the United Church of Christ.
With more than 2,000 individual members, 150 endorsed chaplains and pastoral counselors, 32 local and global mission partners and 130 affiliate congregations the Alliance is committed to missions, progressiveness, radical hospitality, justice-seeking, ecumenism, and partnerships around the world. Learn how to be a part of this vital movement today.
Join progressive Christians in an experience of spiritual growth, gathering and worship at the Alliance of Baptists 2010 Convocation - Born of Wind & Water, Moving with the Spirit.
This year's event will be hosted at the breathtaking Asilomar Conference Center in Pacific Grove, California, July 29 - August 1.
Spiritual formation leaders include singer/songwriter Carrie Newcomer, writer, speaker, and retreat leader Mark Yaconelli, Interplay co-founder Cynthia Winton-Henry, and Pastor Emeritus for First Chinese Baptist Church in San Francisco, CA, James Chuck.
 The Bridges of Hope Mission Offering goal for 2010 is $120,000. These funds support the transformative work of the work of 32 mission partners in the United States and around the world. Give today to Bridges of Hope Mission Offering. Your donation makes a world of difference.
