Aimee Hong

Assistant General Secretary of Programs

Aimee Hong is the Assistant General Secretary of Programs at the General Board of Church and Society, where she provides strategic leadership for a multidisciplinary team that is dedicated to advancing faith-based justice initiatives through education, advocacy, grassroots organizing, and connectional outreach.

Aimee also designs and facilitates educational seminars, webinars, and curriculum to deepen the connection between faith and justice. Her goal is to transform minds and hearts for a just world- to bring the kin-dom of God here on earth.

“Growing up in the church, I felt God’s call to walk the walk in Micah 6:8, but felt the church was silent on how to engage in social justice,” Aimee said. “My faith calls me to work in solidarity with all my siblings to create a just-filled world where all can thrive and live in and as the Beloved Community.”

Aimee holds a Bachelor of Arts in Religion from Oberlin College, a Master of Theological Studies, and a Master of Divinity from Candler School of Theology, Emory University.

Aimee enjoys spending time with her family (spouse, two children, and their imaginary dog and cat) and friends, usually cooking or eating.
