In Christian Science we don't have a pastor in the typical sense. Church of Christ, Scientist has just one universal, permanent Pastor.
Our current readers, Jim Halferty & Beate Hathaway
Mary Baker Eddy, who discovered and founded Christian Science, wanted her Church’s Pastor to be as pure, constant, and powerful as God’s Word itself. To this end, in 1895 she ordained as Pastor both the Bible and her book, Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures, which opens up the Bible in its application to all human needs. Together, these two books are a mentor, spiritual resource, and timeless guide open to all—a Pastor for the world.
Because of its timeless spiritual message, the Pastor is a powerful preacher at all Christian Science worship services. On Sundays, the same weekly Bible Lesson-Sermon of passages from these books is presented by Readers across the world.
Sunday School
Sunday School is a time where preschoolers, children, and teens can feel totally supported and loved! At Sunday School, students learn that God is all-loving and ever-present – and that He is always caring for and guiding us. Students learn how the Bible, and the teachings of Christ Jesus, are relevant in their own lives. And they learn how to pray – and how to heal.
Hymn - at 10am we all gather in the center of the Sunday School to sing from one of our two hymnals: the Christian Science Hymnal and the Christian Science Hymnal Supplement.
1
Bible Lesson + Prayer - We read the Golden Text and Responsive Reading from the Weekly Christian Science Bible Lesson then have a short silent prayer and repeat the Lord’s prayer out loud together.
2
Class - Children break into small groups by age with a teacher and learn about the Bible, God, and prayer.
3
Hymn - at 10:50 we ring a bell to bring everyone back together in the middle of the room. We sing a closing hymn and repeat the Scientific Statement of Being (found in the Christian Science textbook, Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures).
