TAB Community Church
An American Baptist Church

WHO WE ARE

     The American Baptist Community Church in Big Flats, New York is lovingly referred to by the congregation and the community as TAB Community Church.  TAB was founded in 1966 as a church plant by the American Baptists Churches of New York State through the efforts of the Chemung Steuben Association of Churches (NY).  Our church building was built in 1968 and expanded in 1988.  During our 40 years we have had only two pastors.  We are a conservative congregation with an upbeat, open style worship using traditional and contemporary hymns, praise choruses and a variety of special music offerings featuring children, youth, and adult choirs.  Children's moment, children's church and nursery are ministries directed to the children.  Laity members are utilized in various parts of the worship service.  Sunday school classes are available for all ages including serveral options for adults.  Fellowship is important for our young people as we have graded groups for kindergarten through grade 12.  We also have a men's fellowship and a women's study group.  



WHAT WE BELIEVE

GOD:  God is our creator and Eternal Father; The Almighty.  He is the one and only God, the God of Abraham.  He is all-knowing and omnipresent, providing us with all that we need, and desiring to have a personal relationship with His creation.

JESUS CHRIST:  Jesus Christ is the Son of God; God in human form; Our Friend.  Through His sinless response to the world's temptations, He became the perfect and  ultimate sacrifice for the atonement of our sins.  His resurrection from the grave and ascension into Heaven demonstrates God's power over death and points us toward the eternal life in Paradise that Believers will share with the Father.  Jesus will return to Earth in the Second Coming to take all of His children to live with Him in Heaven.
