Church Services

Our Sunday Service is held at 10:00 - 11:00 AM.

During the one hour Sunday service, we sing hymns, pray and hear a sermon read from the Bible and from Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures by Mary Baker Eddy. The sermon comes from the Christian Science Quarterly Bible Lessons, available in any Christian Science Reading Room or online in a variety of formats.

Twenty-six subjects are covered twice a year in our weekly Bible Lessons. Each Lesson is fresh, specially prepared for that week.

Sunday School

“And all thy children shall be taught of the Lord;
and great shall be the peace of thy children.”

Isaiah 54:13

Our Sunday School meets every Sunday at 10:00 AM. We are open to all children and teenagers in our community who are under 20 years old.

The Sunday School students are taught from the Bible. Their first studies will include the Ten Commandments, the Lord's Prayer, and Christ Jesus' Sermon on the Mount, including the Beatitudes.

As classes progress, lessons are taken from the Christian Science weekly Bible Lessons and include questions and answers appropriate to the student's age.

Sunday School students learn how to apply their understanding of the Bible and God to their daily activities and how to live as modern-day disciples of Jesus.
