About Christian Science

The Church of Christ, Scientist was founded in 1879 in Boston, Massachusetts, by Mary Baker Eddy. The church was founded “to commemorate the word and works of our master, which should reinstate primitive Christianity and its lost element of healing” (Manual of the Mother Church).

In Christian Science, God is seen as always upholding health and well-being. The spiritual ideas in the Bible show that the power of prayer lies not in faith alone, but in a deeper understanding of God’s divine laws, which can be practically applied to the needs of today’s world.

Sunday services are held throughout the year and weekly testimony meetings are held on Wednesdays, where following brief readings from the Bible and the Christian Science textbook, those in attendance are invited to give testimonies of healing brought about through Christian Science prayer.

As a branch of the Mother Church, we view all our church activities as healing opportunities, bringing renewal and healing to our members, visitors, and communities around the world. Mary Baker Eddy, the founder of the Church of Christ, Scientist, defines church as “the structure of Truth and Love”. Our members seek to learn and grow in their individual understanding of this idea with expectation of progress and fruition.
