EAST
ANGLIA: RETRACING OUR PURITAN ROOTS
FROM A HISTORICAL AND THEOLOGICAL PERSPECTIVE
June 18 - 30, 2012
 
Join us on a one-in-a-lifetime journey tracing America's Puritan roots back to East Anglia, England. The focus of this entertaining learning adventure is on the history of the Congregational Church. We enjoy lectures and interactive discussions along our route, exploring the villages and churches our Puritan forefathers frequented, discovering the history not only of these people's lives but of the theology that drove them to leave their homes for an unknown and unsure future.
