What is TABCOM
The American Baptist Churches Of Massachusetts (TABCOM) have come together to build the body of Christ through prayer, mutual support and fellowship. We will constantly celebrate God and our rich heritage as American Baptists. We believe our principles of soul freedom, autonomy of the local church, separation of church and state, freedom of and responsibility for interpreting scripture, our regenerate theology and our associational principles not only set us apart but particularly strengthen and equip us for ministry in these times. (I Peter 2:9)
