The Search Committee for the next General Secretary of American Baptist Churches USA seeks your input!

In late July and early August, the Search Committee will be holding a number of Zoom focus groups scheduled by region, and would like to invite all American Baptists who feel called to participate in a focus group and to have a voice in the selection of the denomination’s next General Secretary.

Please join us via Zoom at one of the scheduled focus group times (link updated on 7/29) to share your thoughts as we seek the next General Secretary of American Baptist Churches USA.  (NOTE: If possible, join a call with others from your American Baptist region. All times listed are Eastern Time Zone.)

Each Zoom focus group will be hosted by a member of the Search Committee and should last for approximately one hour. Several general questions will be asked about the role and the necessary attributes of the next General Secretary.

Thank you in advance for your participation in this important task on behalf of our denomination.
