We're not healing matter
Two thousand years ago, Christ Jesus came to teach the world about truth. This long-awaited, prophesied Messiah, or anointed one, was devoted irrevocably to the worship of God, Spirit.
The truth about our situation
Even if we ignore or misunderstand our relation to God, He is still our loving Parent. Nothing can truly change or disrupt our inheritance of oneness with Him. Love.

Online Talk with the Longyear Museum
Tuesday, April 9, 2024 at 5:30 pm Calgary time
Click here to register
Heather Vogel Frederick, author of several books for Longyear Museum Press, will introduce Museum founder Mary Beecher Longyear, tracing her journey from her early days as a schoolteacher in Michigan's Upper Peninsula to the forefront of the historic preservation movement.
You'll learn how Mrs. Longyear and her husband joined forces in embracing the Christian Science movement with their philanthropy. You'll be inspired by the words of wisdom and counsel that Mary Baker Eddy gave to early students — and which Mrs. Longyear recorded after encountering these individuals. And you'll see how Mrs. Longyear came to the conclusion that there was no time to be lost in preserving evidence of Mrs. Eddy's life and work — a mission that Longyear Museum is carrying on today.

What is Christian Science?
Christian Science is more than theory — it's a practice that can deepen your relationship with God and change life for the better. In Christian Science, God is understood to be infinite Love, and so invariably good that a clear glimpse of this through prayer has power to heal, redeem, and restore anyone.

Can Christianity be scientific?
Science is all about understanding and demonstration. Christianity is of the heart. Can these two views be in harmony with each other? We invite you to read a few articles that show how naturally Christianity and Science go together and the blessings that this connection can bring.
Is Christian Science the same as Scientology? The similarities in name can cause some confusion, but the two are, in fact, entirely different religions with very little in common and are not connected in any way. Learn more
The Bible
Science and Health
Mary Baker Eddy
Mary Baker Eddy (1821-1910) was a lifelong student of the Bible. It became clear to her that spiritual healing was based on divine laws of God, Spirit, and that these laws could be applied by anyone to heal human suffering and sin. Her primary work, Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures, contains the full explanation of Christian Science and its biblical foundation of spiritual healing. Mary Baker Eddy went on to establish the Church of Christ, Scientist, as a Christian denomination and worldwide movement of spiritual healers.
Christian Science Practitioners
Christian Science practitioners pray for healing for those who call upon them for help. These experienced men and women are available to help anyone anytime, anywhere. They are also happy, simply to answer questions about the practical blessings that come through the study of Christian Science.
For He shall give His angels charge over thee,
to keep thee in all thy ways.
