Of Good Report

I have worked in Christian Science Reading Rooms for many years and enjoy the adventure of connecting with all kinds of people. Through my many conversations with those who walk through the door, I’ve learned so much about God’s goodness and love.

It was my first consulting job, and I’d worked very hard for six months. However, when it came time to present my findings, I was terrified.

I often express pure joy in my life, especially around Christmastime, because I love God, and I love Life. I make it a goal to uplift those around me through my joyfulness.

The following is an edited and abridged transcript of the “An able church—When we feel the Christ-power in church, it extends to embrace the world” session held in The Mother Church Extension, hosted by Dilshad Khambatta Eames, CS, and Ned Eames on June 2, 2019, the Sunday before Annual Meeting. It was also broadcast live online, and you can watch the complete replay at christianscience.

Christian Science Sunday School  is a wonderful learning experience—for both teacher and pupils. Each class is a joyful opportunity to ask and answer questions about the Bible and the teachings of Christian Science, and to share insights on putting what has been learned into practice.

I love the Wednesday evening testimony meeting at my branch Church of Christ, Scientist. This is a time set aside to show proof of the Science of Christ.

The following is an edited and abridged transcript of the “An able ministry—when healing is too real to keep to ourselves” session held June 1, 2019, the Saturday before Annual Meeting, in the Extension of The Mother Church.

In Science and Health  with Key to the Scriptures, Mary Baker Eddy says, “Home is the dearest spot on earth, and it should be the centre, though not the boundary, of the affections” ( p. 58 ).

Something I am continually learning more about is the blessings that come through membership in a branch Church of Christ, Scientist. When one joins a branch church, it is so much more than simply signing a membership book and agreeing to support the church financially and prayerfully.

Many years ago , when I got my first teaching job, I joined the nearest Christian Science church. Immediately, I was assigned to the nursery, where babies and children too young for Sunday School are cared for.
