The subject for December 7, "God the Only Cause and Creator"
This week’s Bible Lesson Sermon explores how to dive deeper into spiritual causation and to experience the benefits – in living that is healthier, safer, and more beautiful, animated and loving.
Sunday School: 11:00 A.M. to Noon:
Young people from 3 years to 20 years of age are invited to join us in our Sunday School. Here teachers and students work together with the Bible and our textbook, Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures, to learn about God and their spiritual identity and to find answers to their everyday problems.
All are warmly welcome!
Wednesday Evening Tesimony Meetings: 8:00 P.M. to 9:00 P.M.:
Wednesday Evening Testimony Meetings begin with short readings from the Bible, and Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures by Mary Baker Eddy.
After readings from the desk, anyone present can ask questions about Christian Science or share testimonies of healing based on their study and application of Christian Science.
The subject of the readings this Wednesday, December 3:
Quelling sectarian violence. As we watch news reports about the terrorist attacks in Mumbai, India, we may yearn to know what we can do to help the victims of violence, counter the perpetration of such acts, and bring about greater justice for everyone. The readings at this Wednesday’s meeting aim to inspire our efforts to seek intelligent and effective solutions to sectarian violence.

A Warm Welcome,
Wherever you are on life's journey,
we invite you to explore with us the presence and power of God.

today is big with blessings."

Mary Baker Eddy established The First Church of Christ Scientist in 1879 "to commemorate the word and works of our Master, (Christ Jesus,) which should reinstate primitive Christianity and its lost element of healing." |
First Church of Christ Scientist, Berkeley is one of many worldwide branch churches of The Mother Church, The First Church of Christ, Scientist, in Boston, Massachusetts.

"Our Father which art in heaven,"
"Our Father-Mother God, all-harmonious,"
"Hallowed be Thy name."
"Adorable One."
"Thy kingdom come."
"Thy kingdom is come; Thou art ever-present."
"Thy will be done in earth, as it is in heaven."
"Enable us to know,--as in heaven, so on earth,--God is omnipotent, supreme."
"Give us this day our daily bread;"
"Give us grace for to-day; feed the famished affections;"
"And forgive us our debts, as we forgive our debtors."
"And Love is reflected in love;"
"And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil;"
"And God leadeth us not into temptation, but delivereth us from sin, disease, and death."
"For Thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, forever."
"For God is infinite, all-power, all Life, Truth, Love, over all, and All."
"Amen"
