CHURCH RULES

From the November 1898 issue of The Christian Science Journal


[It will be observed that sections 1, 6, 12, and 13 of these Rules have been changed since their publication in the Weekly.—Ed.]

Section 1. This Church shall annually elect three members to constitute a body called "The Board of Education." The candidates for this Board shall be elected by the Christian Science Board of Directors, and approved by the Pastor Emeritus. The Directors shall immediately inform the candidates of their election.

Students who have taken the degree of C.S.B., or C.S.D., at the Massachusetts Metaphysical College, are not required to be examined by the Board of Education. Students that have taken a regular course in Christian Science under the instruction of loyal Christian Scientists, and bring with them such credentials as are required of a candidate for membership of the Mother Church, can become public teachers after passing a thorough examination before the Board of Education, of not less than three days, in Science and Health, chapter on "Recapitulation," the platform of Christian Science; page 403 of "Christian Science Practice," from line second to the second paragraph of page 405, and page 488, second and third paragraphs.
