Christian
Science Reading Rooms
Christian Science Reading Rooms are an "open
door" to our communities. They have often been
a place where many have first heard and learned about
Christian Science. They sell Christian Science
literature and books, including Science and Health
with Key to the Scriptures by Mary Baker Eddy. Many
offer a place to study, research and pray. Some provide
access to the information-rich internet. Established
in Mrs. Eddy's day, and required as a Branch Church activity
in the
Church Manual, how are the Christian Science
Reading Rooms of today playing a relevant role in our
communities?
This page offers a number of resources and
