The rich in spirit help the poor in one grand brotherhood, all having the same Principle, or Father; and blessed is that man who seeth his brother's need and supplieth it, seeking his own in another's good.

Divine Love always has met and always will meet every human need. It is not well to imagine that Jesus demonstrated the divine power to heal only for a select number or for a limited period of time, since to all mankind and in every hour, divine Love supplies all good.

Grace that sweeps away mental darkness

From the August 3, 2020 issue of the Christian Science Sentinel

Grace. It sweeps out even the deepest mental fear the way dawn sweeps darkness from a canyon. With its divine favor and blessing, God’s grace transforms the confounding angst of human life into steady spiritual peace. It imparts strength, purpose, dignity, and sanity. And it does this with tender, loving light—the presence of divine Mind, God. Here’s how it showed up for me at a time of deep need.

You are warmly invited to our hour-long church service this (Wednesday) evening at 7:30pm. These meetings are held in our Reading Room at 120 E. Prairie Avenue in Decatur.

Wednesday meetings are similar to the Sunday services, but the scriptural selections are customized to the needs of the congregation and occasion. You’ll also hear fellow attendees share insights, experiences, and healings they’ve had as a result of their prayer and study of Christian Science.

Please know that you will never be pressured to join the group, take part, or to take up the study of Christian Science.
Come and join us!

“God is Love.” More than this we cannot ask, higher we cannot look, farther we cannot go.
Not materially but spiritually we know Him as divine Mind, as Life, Truth, and Love. ..... The Christian Science God is universal, eternal, divine Love, which changeth not and causeth no evil, disease, nor death.
- Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures by Mary Baker Eddy, pages 6:17–18; 140:7–8, 25–27

You're warmly invited to join us this morning at 10:30 am at 510 W. William Street in Decatur. The subject this week is: Truth. Sunday School for children and young people begins at the same time.

If you’re attending a Christian Science church service for the first time, there are many elements which will be familiar to you — hymns, prayer, readings from the Bible, a warm sense of fellowship. Our services last an hour, and Sunday School begins and ends at the same time.

Please know that you will never be pressured to join the group, take part, or to take up the study of Christian Science.

One infinite God, good, unifies men and nations; constitutes the brotherhood of man; ends wars; fulfils the Scripture, “Love thy neighbor as thyself;” annihilates pagan and Christian idolatry, — whatever is wrong in social, civil, criminal, political, and religious codes; equalizes the sexes; annuls the curse on man, and leaves nothing that can sin, suffer, be punished or destroyed.
- Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures
by Mary Baker Eddy, p 340:23

We hope you can join us tomorrow morning for our church service. The subject of the Lesson is: Truth.

And when he had called unto him his twelve disciples, he gave them power against unclean spirits, to cast them out, and to heal all manner of sickness and all manner of disease.
