The Mission Statement of the American Baptist International Ministries is: Our mission is to glorify God in all the earth by crossing cultural boundaries to help people come to Christ, grow in Christ and change their worlds with Christ.
Our contribution to the 2009 World Mission Offering will bring good news of the love of Jesus to people all over the world while helping to meet human needs in the following areas: leading people to faith and starting new churches; training future church leaders; abolishing human trafficking; promoting health in an HIV/AIDS world; creating economic opportunity and building futures; opening the mind and empowering the heart; seeking peace and offering refuge.
