First Church of Christ, Scientist, Greensboro

 

 

Join us for our next service this Wednesday, March 27, at 7:30 pm.

Welcome to the Christian Science Church of Greensboro NC!

Our church is located just west of downtown at 105 Arden Place, Greensboro, NC 27403

We support our community through the individual and collective pursuit of prayer, spiritual healing, and worship at our weekly Sunday and Wednesday services, Sunday School (for children up to age 20) and Reading Room.

We follow the teachings and practice of Christ Jesus, and our dual pastor is the Bible and Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures by Mary Baker Eddy (the discoverer and founder of Christian Science).

Come visit — everyone is welcome.

Join us in April for a free Christian Science lecture at our church.

In this talk, Nicole Virgil, a member of the Christian Science Board of Lectureship,  will examine liberty from a Biblical perspective; and show how real people today find their freedom from all kinds of physical, emotional and circumstantial restrictions that seem clearly beyond their control.

SUNDAY SERVICES – On Sunday mornings we sing hymns, pray, and listen to the Lesson-Sermon read from the Bible and the Christian Science Textbook, Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures by Mary Baker Eddy, who discovered and founded Christian Science. Together, these two books are the pastor for Churches of Christ, Scientists worldwide and they speak in a way that is relevant to all ages. In each Lesson, Bible passages are corroborated and explained by passages from Science and Health.
