Discovering the pastor— and a whole lot more!

From the December 1996 issue of The Christian Science Journal


Courtnay Douglas, a member of the Journal, Sentinel, and Herald Editorial staff, reports on a recent visit to Boston of an enthusiastic group of young people with a mission. A year ago, the pupils in the Sunday School at First Church of Christ, Scientist, Seattle, Washington, were asked, "What is the pastor of Christian Science?" When they didn't have answers, the members of the Sunday School were presented with the idea, which they decided to work on, of an extracurricular project to read biographies of Mary Baker Eddy in order to get background that would help them answer this question.
