The Body of Christ

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

This article is about the religious group which called itself The Body of Christ. For the general theological term of the Body of Christ, see that article.

The Body of Christ, also known as the Attleboro cult, was a small religious group founded in Attleboro, Massachusetts, which began as a Bible study group in the late 70's but became a cult. It was broken up in the late 1990s after the beliefs of the group directly caused the death of two infant children, who were then secretly buried in Baxter State Park in Maine.
