Our Services
The order of Christian Science services is the same, whether you're in Venice, California, or Tokyo, Japan, listening in English or Japanese. And the sermon on Sunday Services (what we call the Lesson-Sermon or Weekly Bible Lesson) is the same, too. This sermon consists of readings from The Holy Bible, followed by correlative passages from Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures by Mary Baker Eddy. Lay members of the congregation (not professional clergy) serve as readers. (The Bible and the Christian Science textbook, Science and Health are our pastor.)
“If you’re seeking a quiet oasis where you can commune with God, we invite you to join us for a Sunday or Wednesday service”
In all of our services, we have time for silent prayer as well as praying together the Lord's Prayer. We sing hymns with pipe oragan accompaniment, and there is a solo on Sunday.
Wednesday's Services (our
"testimony meetings") include readings from the Bible and Science
and Health on a subject of interest to the community, along with appropriate
hymns. About half of the hour-long service is given over to testimonies
from the audience. Testimonies may include examples of physical healing
or simple expressions of gratitude or inspiration.
These meetings are a refreshing mid-week opportunity to hear spiritual
truths and express our gratitude to God.
All services are open to the public, and everyone is welcome. We expect
spiritual healing to occur at all of our services.
