We are a world-wide congregation united by the desire to love and know God better so we each may live as the individual He created us to be. We study both The Bible and the writings of Mary Baker Eddy, striving to put the Word of God into practice. We warmly welcome you to our website!

We need but step out from the dark tomb of material sense into the bright and shining atmosphere of Life, Truth and Love to find our resurrection. Jesus’ command is as much for us to-day as it was for the entombed Lazarus; and we too, if we will, may now hear the welcome words: “Loose him and let him go,” for “I am the Resurrection and the Life.”

“To successfully treat children, cut off the parent thought. Man is the offspring of God, not man. The material birth is but the false conception. Realize that matter cannot transmit good or evil. It is inert, unintelligent, and cannot be the medium of intelligence. ... Detach the thought of the child from the parent and the germs of erroneous seed of the parent thought will cease to impress the child.”

Grant, O my God, that neither the joys nor the sorrows of this period shall have visited my heart in vain. Make me wiser and stronger for immediate duties, and ripen me by whatever means thou seest best for those that be beyond.

Like God, we are able to “rest in action” (Science and Health, p. 519). We work vigorously for our own advancement and the advancement of others. While doing so, we are confronted with all sorts of errors, but they do not disturb the harmony of our consciousness while we are overcoming them. We are strong enough in the truth so that they cannot disturb us.

The true Christian Scientist...is not disheartened by the appearance of sin and deceit, fraud and selfishness. He simply takes charge of the situation when he is confronted by any one or all of them. Nothing escapes him, and he never allows a human bias or a human opinion to intrude for one second into that clear discernment which is his heritage as the image and likeness of infinite wisdom.
