In January, 1887, Christian Science was brought to Toledo. The gospel of healing was preached through works, thereby demonstrating the principal Jesus taught 2,000 years ago.
In January, 1889, Sabbath services were started, and were held in the rooms of Miss Sarah J. Clark, in the Madison. Her audience consisted of two ladies who had been healed of numerous infirmities. The following April, the first publie service was held in the rooms in the Curtis block, corner of Adams and Ontario streets. In seven months they were crowded out of their rooms, and moved to the Worthington. corner of Adams and Superior streets. The next year they organized a church, under a state charter, with a growing congregation. In November, 1890, they purchased the Le Baron property on Tenth Street, opposite the High School, and turned the house into a bright, commodious chapel. Twice the rooms were enlarged, by taking down partitions, owing to the increase of the congregation.
Having outgrown their chapel, it has been rented to the High School, and Currier Hall has been secured for Sabbath services.— Sunday Morning Courier, Cleveland, Ohio.
