Beloved Church family,
We so look forward to uniting with you for Annual Meeting on June 6—online wherever you are, or here in Boston. We love this sacred and joyful occasion to share with and hear from members around the globe how the scientific knowledge of God is tangibly blessing humanity. It’s a time to inspire and strengthen each other in fulfilling Mary Baker Eddy’s vision for her Church as “designed to be built on the Rock, Christ; even the understanding and demonstration of divine Truth, Life, and Love, healing and saving the world from sin and death; thus to reflect in some degree the Church Universal and Triumphant” (Church Manual, p. 19).
Healing and saving the world! That’s quite an expectation. We rejoice in global examples of progress in justice and peace—heartening evidence of a growing understanding of one universal God that is Truth and Love. Yet much remains to be done to demonstrate the reality of God’s allness that heals and saves individuals, nations, and the whole earth.
