Reforming Synod information


The confession of faith adopted by the Reforming Synod was translated into Angonquian.

The Reforming Synod, also called the Synod of Boston[1] was a synod convened in Colonial New England for two sessions in 1679 and 1680. It was convened by the Massachusetts General Court in response to perceived spiritual decay, set to answer two questions: “What are the Evils that have provoked the Lord to bring his judgments on New England?", and, “What is to be done, that so these evils may be reformed?”[2] Spiritual decline was in part attributed to the Half-Way Covenant and surrounding controversy.[3]
