The missionaries came to North America because they wanted to spread their spiritual beliefs. Europeans believed that Christianity was the only true religion and that it was their duty to introduce it to every corner of the world.

Why did the missionaries come to north?

North America was not populated by 'Missionaries' - the job of a missionary is to convert people who do not believe into believers. The early colonists of North America were not so much missionaries as religious refugees, fleeing to America so that they could set up communities free to worship as they wished/believed. This migration happened because of the religious oppression that was occurring in many part of Europe at the time.
