Dear Fellow Members and Friends,
Healing has always been—and continues to be—the foundation of the Church of Christ, Scientist, and its worldwide mission. Mary Baker Eddy wrote, “Jesus established his church and maintained his mission on a spiritual foundation of Christ-healing” (Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures, p. 136). As you can see in this brief video compilation from Church Alive Summits, church members in Jakarta, Indonesia; Lusaka, Zambia; and Santa Rosa, California, USA; share their experiences of healing today. As this transformative impact of Christ-healing is felt in individual lives, its wider mission continues to embrace, uplift, and redeem humanity.
Appropriately, the theme for Annual Meeting 2014 is “A spiritual foundation of Christ-healing.” You are invited to watch the meeting online, either live on June 2 at 1:00 p.m. Boston time (1700 UTC), or afterward when it’s available for replay. Viewing Annual Meeting with family, friends, and fellow members can provide a natural opportunity for fellowship and inspiration as well as impel a fresh commitment to Christ-healing in our own lives and churches and communities.
Thank you for your dedication to Christ-healing and to our Church.
Warmly,
Lyle Young
Clerk of The Mother Church
