HISTORY OF THE DENVER CHURCH

From the August 1898 issue of The Christian Science Journal

Denver Republican


The nucleus of the present Christian Science church was organized seven years ago with twenty-five members. There were at that time not more than fifty persons in the city who believed Christian Science to be true. The society grew and the present church was finally built. It was much larger than required at first, but last fall an addition was built at a cost of $4,000 and paid for, and the church now seats seven hundred and fifty people, and the average attendance is between seven hundred and fifty and eight hundred every Sunday morning and Friday night.

There are at present three hundred and one members, eighty-one new members having been received during the fiscal year ended May 13. In that time eight were dismissed to enable them to join Christian Scientist churches elsewhere, one had his name dropped by request, and three had passed away.—Denver Republican.
