jun 12, 1661 - The Savoy House Conference

Description:

The Savoy House Conference was a meeting held in 1661 between representatives of the Church of England and non-conformist groups, including Presbyterians, Congregationalists, and Baptists. The conference was convened by King Charles II, who hoped to reconcile the non-conformists with the established church.

However, the conference did result in the publication of the Savoy Declaration, which outlined the beliefs of the Congregationalist churches. The declaration was not officially adopted by the Church of England, but it served as an important statement of Congregationalist theology.

Overall, the Savoy House Conference was a significant event in the history of English Protestantism, as it show a small weakening on religion acknowledging other religions.
