Massachusetts State Flag

On a white field is a blue shield emblazoned with the image of a Native American, Massachuset. He holds a bow in one hand and an arrow in the other. The arrow is pointing downward representing peace. The white star represents Massachusetts as one of the original thirteen states. Around the shield is a blue ribbon with the motto: By the Sword We Seek Peace, but Peace Only Under Liberty. Above the shield is a arm and sword, representing the first part of the motto.

Arlington Street Church MA1 Print E-mail
The first church to be built in the newly-filled Back Bay, this parish moved from Federal Street in 1861. Arlington Street Church continues today as a Unitarian Universalist congregation committed to social justice. The building's design was inspired by the eighteenth century London church of St. Martin-in-the-Fields. The architect, Arthur Gilman, also designed the Back Bay street plan.
Arlington and Boylston Sts., Boston, Suffolk County Massachusetts
