Merry Christmas from The Mayflower Society! Please enjoy this History of Christmas in Plymouth, MA, as told by our Governor General, Lisa Pennington. From Medieval Christmas in England in the 1580s and 1590s when the Pilgrims grew up, to the absence of Christmas in Plymouth in 1620, to Christmas being outlawed in Plymouth in 1659, to 1870 when Christmas was finally recognized again in Plymouth! #TheMayflowerSociety #ChristmasInPlymouth #PlymouthMa #HistoryOfThePilgrims #Christmas | General Socie

This Giving Tuesday, you can help preserve a piece of history: The Mayflower Meetinghouse. We invite you to be part of something truly meaningful, as we join together to support the next phase of The Mayflower Meetinghouse Project. The goal of the Mayflower Meetinghouse Project is not only to restore the physical meetinghouse building but also to preserve the history of the Pilgrims through a virtual and educational experience. Every donation for Giving Tuesday this year will specifically be use

The Mayflower ship sailed from England to America in 1620 and would change history forever. Fleeing persecution and seeking a place where they could worship freely, the Pilgrims made the journey from the land they knew into the unknown. #Mayflower #Speedwell #Reformation500 #Lineage #KnowYourHistory | Lineage Journey
