A long beloved tradition in American Baptist Women's Ministries, Love Gift is an over-and-above offering that supports American Baptist mission and ministry. Begun during the Great Depression, the denomination faced a deficit and the women challenged one another to raise enough funds to cover that deficit. They rose to meet that challenge and then some!

Today, Love Gift is an extra gift to the United Mission support of the American Baptist family. Through Love Gift, missions and ministries in the United States and Puerto Rico and around the world are able to reach out to millions of God's people.

Even if you no longer have an active ABWM group, individuals may contribute to Love Gift by sending a check to American Baptist Churches-USA, P.O. Box 8538-189, Philadelphia, PA 19171-0851. If you need a copy of the “Monthly Report of Missionary Support” form, contact Lil at 213.955.9874 or Lil@abcla.org and she will send you the form with the church PIN on it. Thanks for continuing to support Love Gift – one way to count the many blessings we receive every day!
