We are an independent, non-profit organization of ordained, commissioned and lay Christian leaders who are serving American Baptist Churches.

We nurture, encourage and strengthen more than 2000 clergy, counselors, seminarians and lay leaders. We provide fellowshipping opportunities; spiritual enrichment; and educational programming to fuel the effectiveness of the men and women called of God to advance the Gospel of Jesus Christ.

• Annual gatherings, workshops, retreats for respite, and spiritual and professional development;
• Models and best practice guidelines for creating clergy peer groups;
• Informative articles and writings for ministers;
• Discounts to value-added services through partnerships;
• A sense of community for clergy so that no one has to go it alone.
