Massachusetts Bay Colony
Settled in 1630 by Puritans
They disliked the Church of England and wanted to reform or ‘purify’ the church from within
They did not believe in religious tolerance and would not accept people who had beliefs different than their own
![Page 9: The New England Colonies Plymouth, Massachusetts Bay, Rhode Island, New Hampshire, and Connecticut.](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062517/56649f395503460f94c561d6/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
As the Puritans sailed, founder of the colony and future governor John Winthrop delivered a famous sermon, outlining the goals and beliefs of the colonists.

“We must be knit together in this work, as one man. We must entertain each other in brotherly affection.... We must delight in each other; make others’ condition our own; rejoice together, mourn together, labor and suffer together....For we must consider that we shall be as a city upon a hill. The eyes of all people are upon us.”
~ John Winthrop, “A Model of Christian Charity”
