First Church of Christ Scientist, New Haven, CT

About Our Church

First Church of Christ, Scientist, New Haven, is a branch of the Mother Church, The First Church of Christ Scientist in Boston, Massachusetts. Our purpose is to bring evidence of God’s ever-present and all-powerful Love to our community.

Through the weekly study of the Bible and the Christian Science textbook, Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures, by Mary Baker Eddy, members of this church and those who visit our services are gaining mastery of their health and are finding permanent peace and happiness.

Our church is located at 950 Chapel Street.

Sunday Services

Our Sunday service begins includes hymns and readings from the Bible and Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures.

Sunday School

At the same time as the Sunday Service, our Sunday School is available for children and young adults up to the age of 20.

Sunday School classes study themes from the Bible and the current week's Bible Lesson published in The Christian Science Quarterly.

Students learn to apply them meaningfully in their daily lives.

Wednesday Evening Services

On Wednesday evenings, our church holds testimony meetings that also include hymns and readings from the Bible and Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures. The heart of these meetings, though, are examples of spiritual healing and gratitude shared by members of the congregation.

Everyone is welcome to attend and participate in both Sunday and Wednesday services. We provide loving childcare at both services.

Reading Room

The church maintains a Christian Science Reading Room adjacent to the church, at 950 Chapel Street.

At our reading room visitors can study and purchase the Bible and Christian Science literature, including Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures, other writings by Mary Baker Eddy, and articles on subjects of Christian Science healing.
