Mission Statement
Historic Madison Avenue Baptist Church is an American Baptist congregation in midtown Manhattan. We are a diverse community that is
inclusive of all people. Jesus offered
us a pure example of love, compassion and justice. In our human way, we
attempt to follow his example.
Description
We believe in a joyous spirit - so we
called a minister who was also a standup comedian as our Senior Pastor.
We believe in a giving spirit - so we
offer meals to the elderly, a homeless
shelter on weekends, weekly children’s music programs, AA meetings, and
other community ministries.
We believe in an inclusive spirit where all are welcomed. In fact, MABC is a Charter member of the Association of Welcoming and Affirming Baptists.
In short, it’s not the "Baptist Church" everyone expects.
MABC is a church where people speak to you in the morning, a place of worship that honors everyone, and is a community of faith that follows a gospel of joy and laughter. With us you’ll find a warm smile, a friendly handshake, and perhaps a home.
