The country had a longstanding but small group of reformers called evangelicals, who believed that salvation could be attained only through faith in Christ’s sacrifice 13 The Reformation in England WORDS TO KNOW archbishop: The head bishop of a province or district. lady-in-waiting: A woman in the queen’s household who attends the queen. bishop: A clergyman with a rank higher than a priest, who has the power to ordain priests and usually presides over a diocese. papal legate: A representative of the pope within a particular nation.

Like her father she wanted to create a church that combined some traits of both the Catholic and the Protestant form of worship. Unlike Edward and Mary she was not interested in people’s private belief systems. As long as her subjects acknowledged her as the leader of the church and attended the national church, she did not care if they held Catholic or Protestant views. ’’ She wanted the English church to bring unity and peace to Protestants and Catholics alike in her country. Elizabeth called her first session of Parliament to push through her religious reforms.

It once again terminated England’s connection with the Roman church and repealed Mary’s hated heresy laws, which had made disagreeing with church doctrine a crime punishable by death. Although Parliament had accepted Henry VIII as the ‘‘supreme head’’ of the English church, Parliament was bitterly opposed to the idea of a woman as the head of the English church. Elizabeth therefore accepted the title of ‘‘supreme governor’’ of the church and agreed to leave final decisions on important church matters to its highest-ranking clergy.
