Join us on our 2015 Massachusetts Tour to study important sites related to the War for Independence and the founding of the United States. We begin at Plymouth, where the Pilgrims landed and established many of the Biblical principles that are the foundations for our county. We continue the tour in Boston, a city that proved critical to the Revolution. We continue on with the War for Independence, visiting Lexington and Concord, where the war began, as well as Saratoga, one of the great disasters for the British forces. The tour concludes with a visit to the home of the Adams family, some of the founding fathers of our country.
