MayflowerFest

On 6th September 1620 the Mayflower began its journey to the New World. This September we are commemorating the Pilgrims who set sail 400 years ago with a reflection on its legacy.

There will be a:

• Worship tent with a reflection from Mike Fales Moderator Elect of International Congregational Fellowship and member of a Congregational church in America
• Children’s tent
• a Theology tent – exploring the Promised Land theology
• Mayflower Art and Artifacts Tent
• Songs That Sustain Us Tent
• Historical Voices Tent

In the Theology Tent video mention is made of the Underground Railroad. Take a look at these PDF's which share something of their fascinating story:

• Flight to Freedom
• Flight to Freedom Flyer
• Living Museum
• BABES Aboard the Underground Railroad Book
