COMMUNION SERVICE                           

 

     Our Communion Service is held twice a year. This service varies a little from our regular Sunday Service. At our Communion Service we take a few moments, kneel, and pray to God silently, - allowing each individual to commune with his Father-Mother God in his own way. Then we follow this time with the audible reptition of the Lord's Prayer.

     Communion for Christian Scientists is a humble time of gratitude as well as deep searching. All material symbols have been put off and we seek to express our communion with God on a daily basis.

    Mrs. Eddy explains: "Our baptism is a purification from all error. Our church is built on the divine Principle, Love.  We can unite with this church only as we are new-born of Spirit, as we reach the Life which is Truth and the Truth which is Life by bringing forth the fruits of Love, casting out error and healing the sick. Our Eucharist is spiritual communion with the one God. Our bread, 'which cometh down from heaven,' is Truth. Our cup is the cross. Our wine the inspiration of Love, the draught our Master drank and commended to his followers" (Science & Health, pg 35).
