My name is Sam Morris. I am a Puritan originally from England. In England we Puritans suffered because of our religious beliefs. I decided that I would be better able to serve god and myself by traveling to Massachusetts in the New World. It has been a month since the end of the horrible voyage only to find some things not much better. The voyage here was the worst experience of my life.
Half of those on the ship didn’t survive the voyage and for a time I wasn’t sure that I would myself. The stench was so putrid and unbearable that I couldn’t stand to be below deck, and I was forced to put up with the cold, wet temperatures above the deck. The rough sea beat at the ship constantly and it seemed that the ship would fall apart any second. The entire voyage leaks sprung out and we were forced to caulk them. I’m just grateful that we ” ve landed in Massachusetts. During the day we work on building our community and gathering enough food to survive.
The weather and environment are horrible. The entire area is a swamp and many people are getting sick or dying from diseases. I know that I will be ok though because I am closer to the lord then I have ever been. I’ve been attending mass at our church every day briefly, and all day on Sunday even though sometimes it isn’t the most exciting activity. We planned on being finished building our community much earlier in the year before the winter, but we can’t help the delay. It is very difficult with the harsh weather, lack of food, and working every day, but I am able to worship freely and it is entirely worth it.
