Welcome to First Church of Christ, Scientist

Visitors often say they feel a renewed sense of peace, love and joy in our church- that it is a spiritual oasis. Everyone is always lovingly welcomed, and many have experienced healing while attending a service. Healing is a natural outgrowth of gaining a clearer, deeper understanding of God's love. And each one of us is precious in God's eyes. |
We are a branch of the The First Church of Christ, Scientist in Boston, Massachusetts. We're located at 531 Danbury Road, also known as Route 7. You may click here for a map showing the location of the church.
The building of our church made front-page news in 1962. The architecture was cutting edge- a church built "in the round". No wonder people feel embraced at the services!
Sunday Service at 10 AM
|
We have an abiding love of the Bible, and this love for the Old and New Testament forms the foundation of our services. Every Sunday at 10am, we gather for one hour. The Sunday Service includes joyful singing of the congregation, instrumental music, and a lovely solo. |
|
|
The heart of every Christian Science service is the reading of the Bible Lesson Sermon. This lesson is studied each week all over the world. Two readers are elected from the membership, and the pastor is comprised of two books: The Bible, and Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures, by Mary Baker Eddy. Mrs. Eddy's book sheds light on the spiritual meaning of the Bible. |

Wednesday Evening Meeting 8 PM
|
Our Wednesday Meeting is held from 8-9 PM. Here's what a visitor has shared about these meetings: "…it was unique, different every week, addressed up-to-the minute issues. But what really caught my attention were the testimonies. Anyone (children, too!) could informally, in their own words, tell how they prayed about a specific situation- illness, family problems, financial stresses, community issues. And how they got answers! How they had healings!" Prayer is practical. Some of the benefits are:
Please feel free to come and see for yourself. You may also view sample readings from the Bible and Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures as recently read at our church. |
Sunday School 10 AM
|
Young people up to the age of 20 find answers every week in Sunday school. Age-appropriate classes are held at 10am, the same time as the Sunday Service. In Sunday school children gain a clearer understanding of their relationship to God and learn how to pray. |
|
|
All children are welcome and are taught practical, spiritual tools for handling peer pressure, academic stresses, and questions about identity and worth. Students study the Bible, including The Ten Commandments, The Beatitudes, The Sermon on the Mount, and The Lord's Prayer. The weekly Bible Lesson and Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures serve as a foundation for lessons that help children feel God's love, and learn that effective prayer brings results. |
