The Christian Science Publishing Society accepts religious articles and religious poems only from members of The Mother Church. Religious articles intended for the Journal, Sentinel, or Monitor should be sent to the Journal, Sentinel, and Herald Editorial Department, 107 Falmouth Street, Boston, Massachusetts. Preferably, contributors should correspond for themselves. A memorandum for contributors of religious articles and poems can be obtained from this Department by request.
Convincing testimonies of Christian Science healing are also desired. Each testimony should be verified by three members of The Mother Church who either know of the healing or can vouch for the integrity of the testifier. If, however, the testifier is not acquainted with three members of The Mother Church, his affidavit may be sufficient; but in this case he should, if possible, obtain verification from one or two members of The Mother Church. The testifier himself should obtain the verifications. Complete addresses of the testifier and those who vouch for him should be furnished with each testimony.
Applications for admission to membership in The Mother Church may be sent to the Clerk at any time throughout the year. It is desirable that applications should be forwarded in ample time so that they may receive the essential preliminary attention before the date of election. The receipt of an application by the Clerk does not make the applicant a member. Applications are acted upon by the Board of Directors, twice each year, as provided by the Manual of The Mother Church, Article XIII, Section 2.
