The seeds of a new nation

“The courageous Pilgrims became the seeds of a new nation. They sacrificed fortunes and endured hardships solely for the freedom to worship God according to the dictates of their conscience. Prizing that liberty above life itself, they surmounted all obstacles to gain it.
“In paying tribute to them, the forefathers of this great nation, we must also acknowledge the source of their inspiration, their comfort in sorrow, the magnet that drew them 3,000 miles across the cold and stormy Atlantic waters to a country beyond the edge of civilization. It was the book that for them was supreme in all matters of faith and practice—the ‘Indestructible Book’.”
