Living Church

Warm spaces

From the February 2026 issue of The Christian Science Journal


Christian Science Reading Rooms exist to serve their communities and are staffed and maintained by their local Christian Science churches. They are open to everyone for prayer and reflection, and to purchase the Bible, Mary Baker Eddy’s writings, and periodicals on Christian Science, and to read or ask questions.

My country, like many others, is currently facing price increases for gas and electricity. This is challenging for our citizens and has far-reaching effects on the cost of living. To help remedy this, our government has recommended that churches and charity organizations, libraries and community centers, open their doors to the public, when possible, offering “warm spaces” to help relieve citizens of some of their daytime heating costs.

Our local Christian Science church has invited the public to come into our Reading Room, and we’ve designated one weekday afternoon as a “warm space” day. Free hot drinks are served.
