In 2019, the American Baptist Women’s Ministries (ABWM) national board deeply reflected on the Ministry Focus for the next few years. They desired to implement a Ministry Focus that expressed our hopes for ABWM to thrive as a transformational space for spiritual growth and unity.

In 2019-2021, after prayer and discussion, the board decided the Ministry Focus would be Sister Seeking Wholeness. During this time, our webinar series and other resources centered on wellness and wholeness. In 2021-2023, the board selected a new exciting focus, Let the Walls Fall Down, understanding the need to remove internal and external, spiritual, emotional, and physical roadblocks and walls that keep us divided and disconnected as the body of Christ. 

We are creating spaces for a better today and future for ABWM. We were passionate about removing  walls that blocked our wholeness and wellness collectively and individually. We strive to be a Christ centered sisterhood, engaging and empowering women from the inside out. We know that it is  essential that we are aligned, transparent, unified, respectful, discerning, and persistent in love,  grace, justice, and mercy. 

And with these ideals in mind, the national board moves our 32 region/states forward with our new 2023-2025 theme, Be Strong, Be Courageous, as we walk shoulder to shoulder, connected heart to heart in God’s call on this ministry to lift up women and in doing so we lift our denomination. We continue to seek holy wholeness, divine discernment to Let the Walls Fall Down removing all spiritual, emotional and physical walls, and now we will be bold and courageous with love. Consistent with Joshua 1:9, God has commanded us to Be Strong and to Be Courageous. We will not be afraid or discouraged For the Lord our God is with us, wherever we go. ​
