​The American Baptist Churches of Rhode Island have a long history of shared ministry and association. Some of our churches trace their cooperative ministries all the way back to the Warren Association which was established in 1767. The American Baptist Churches of Rhode Island value the call to ministry that is unique to their own community as well as the shared fellowship and encouragement that is available in their free and faithful association together.
 
Our work and ministry as the American Baptist Churches of Rhode Island is focused by our mission statement:  Based upon our commitment to Jesus, the Christ, and the leading of the Holy Spirit, we the American Baptist Churches of Rhode Island, exist to resource our people and to engage in Christ-centered ministries by promoting and building healthy pastors and healthy churches to bring the whole gospel to the whole world.
