What is Christian Science?

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.

What can you expect at church?

Many members and visitors have experienced healing at a Christian Science church service. We hold Sunday services and Wednesday testimony meetings that include hymns and readings from the Bible and Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures by Mary Baker Eddy. The testimony meetings also include first-hand accounts of healing from members of the congregation.
