KING OF PRUSSIA (ABNS 10/9/25) — Get ready for an inspiring and grace-filled celebration as we come together for ABCUSA Sunday 2026 this February! This special occasion invites American Baptists across the country to gather in unity and purpose, celebrating who we are as a family of faith—rooted in history, centered in mission, and guided by God’s Spirit.
The theme for 2026, “ Grace that Flows, Mission that Grows ,” captures the heart of our calling as American Baptists. Together, we are reminded of the words of 2 Corinthians 9:8: “And God is able to bless you abundantly, so that in all things at all times, having all that you need, you will abound in every good work.”
Congregations are encouraged to celebrate on February 8 or 15, 2026—the Sundays before and after Valentine’s Day—or to select another Sunday that best fits their schedule, using free resources available for download.
On ABCUSA Sunday, churches are invited to:
Celebrate the rich heritage and Baptist distinctives of American Baptists.
Share stories of mission, discipleship, and transformation within their congregations and communities.
Give thanks for the grace of God that continues to flow through our witness and grow through our mission.
“ABCUSA Sunday is a joyful celebration of our shared faith, commitment to mission, and fellowship. It reminds us that God’s Spirit is moving among us, weaving our churches together in love and calling us to live out the gospel in unity,” said Rev. Dr. Gina Jacobs-Strain, General Secretary of American Baptist Churches USA.
Your congregation’s participation in ABCUSA Sunday helps spread the message of our collective mission and reminds us that we are truly United in Christ, Together in Mission.
Resources and tools to support your celebration, including sermon outlines, videos, posters, bulletin inserts, and more, are available at www.abc-usa.org/ABCUSASunday/ .
American Baptist Churches USA is one of the most diverse Christian denominations today, with approximately 5,000 congregations comprised of 1.3 million members, across the United States and Puerto Rico, all engaged in God’s mission around the world.
