REGISTRATION REQUIRED FOR LECTURE

At 1 pm on Sunday, September 8, John Ericson will present on “Born from Conflict – Puritans in Virginia”.

We think of New England as the place of Puritanism but the movement had deep roots in Virginia even before the founding of the Plymouth Colony. St Luke’s Education Coordinator John Ericson will examine the history of Dissenters in the Virginia Colony and why it died out by the mid-17th Century.
