Pastor

“I, Mary Baker Eddy, ordain the Bible, and Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures, Pastor over The Mother Church …and they will continue to preach for this Church and the world” (Manual of The Mother Church). “As adherents of Truth, we take the inspired Word of the Bible as our sufficient guide to eternal Life” (First Tenet of The Mother Church). Mary Baker Eddy is the Discoverer and Founder of Christian Science. She is the author of the Christian Science textbook, Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures – the book that contains the full statement of Christian Science.

Practitioners, Teachers and CS Nurses

Christian Science Practitioners and Teachers are experienced healers who devote their full time to the healing ministry. Christian Science Practitioners are available to the public to heal through prayer-based treatment as explained in the book Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures by Mary Baker Eddy. Practitioners and Teachers are enjoined by a Church Manual By-Law to “hold in sacred confidence all private communications made to them by their patients; also such information as may come to them by reason of practitioner to patient.” Click here for a worldwide Directory. You may also consult the listings at the back of each issue of the Christian Science Journal, available at our Reading Room. A Christian Science nurse is trained to provide skilled, non-medical care in meeting the physical needs of a patient who is working with a Christian Science practitioner.
