First Church of Christ, Scientist - West Chester

Sunday Services

Our Sunday services are conducted by a First and Second reader. The lesson-sermon consists of selections from the King James version of the Bible and Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures by Mary Baker Eddy, the impersonal Pastor of Christian Science Church. This lesson-sermon, which is published in the Christian Science Quarterly, is available for all to study during the preceding week.

Sunday School

Sunday school convenes year round and all children up to the age of 20 are welcome. Instruction, which includes the teachings and healings of Christ Jesus, is from the Bible and the writings of Mary Baker Eddy. Pupils are also taught the Beatitudes, the Ten Commandments, how to know God, to feel and prove His power, and how to apply Christian Science to daily living. Childcare for very young children is provided at all services.

Wednesday Readings

All are welcome to attend inspirational Wednesday meetings at 7:30 pm. They include topical readings from the Bible and the Christian Science textbook, as well as time for the congregation to share testimonies of healing, experiences and remarks on Christian Science.

Christian Science is based on Eternal Truths of the Bible

Mary Baker Eddy discovered these Biblical truths in 1866. She described them in a book that she named Science and Health with the Key to the Scriptures. Along with the Bible, it includes the entire explanation of the teachings of Christian Science. This is her most important and widely read book, available in 17 languages.
