ANNUAL CHURCH MEETING

From the July 1900 issue of The Christian Science Journal


The Annual Meeting of the Mother Church, The First Church of Christ, Scientist, in Boston, Mass., was held in Mechanics Hall on Huntington Avenue, June 5, 1900, and was the largest in the history of the church, upwards of thirty-one hundred members being present. The meeting was most interesting and encouraging and will long be remembered by all present, especially by those who for the first time had the great pleasure of attending the annual Communion in the Mother Church and remained in Boston to attend this meeting.

The meeting was called to order by the president, William P. McKenzie. The hymn, "Shepherd, show me how to go" by Rev. Mary Baker G. Eddy, was sung. The sixty-fifth chapter of Isaiah was then read. This was followed by a selection from the Christian Science textbook. "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures" by Mary Baker G. Eddy, pp. 564 and 565.

Then came the usual silent prayer followed by the Lord's Prayer.
