THE LORD'S DAY ALLIANCE OF THE U.S.

The Lord's Day Alliance of the U.S.

The Lord’s Day Alliance of the United States exists to encourage Christians to reclaim the Sabbath–the Lord's Day–as a day of spiritual and personal renewal, enabling them to impact their communities with the Gospel.

Our History

The Lord's Day Alliance of the United States (LDA) was founded in 1888. That year representatives of six major Protestant denominations met in Washington, D.C. to organize the American Sabbath Union; this name was later changed to The Lord's Day Alliance of the United States. The LDA has been the one national organization whose sole purpose is to maintain and cultivate the first day of the week as a time for rest, worship, Christian education and spiritual renewal.

Over its life, the LDA has worked toward the goal of preserving and protecting worker's rights to time away from work responsibilities to worship and honor the Lord. Today, The Lord's Day Alliance stands on the edge of a great opportunity to proclaim the message of the Sabbath -- a message of spiritual renewal and personal well-being -- in our fast-paced 24/7, 21st century American culture.
