What is One Day?
“The One Day Acts 1:8 Missions Experience provides an annual opportunity for Arkansas Baptists to impact lostness in a specific area of our state. Partnering with the churches of a local Association, Arkansas Baptists from across the state spend five hours on the first Saturday in October serving in a variety of ministries. Since 2010, more than 25,000 Arkansas Baptists have been mobilized for missions through One Day.
That’s about 2,000 Arkansas Baptist missionaries serving each year!”
