About Us
Welcome to our healing church!
First Church of Christ, Scientist, Green Valley, Arizona, is one of the worldwide branches of The Mother Church, The First Church of Christ, Scientist, in Boston, Massachusetts, which was founded by Mary Baker Eddy in 1879.
Our particular branch church has members located all around the Interstate 19 corridor in southern Arizona – our members come from as far north as the southern city limits of Tucson to as far south as Rio Rico/Nogales.
Through the study of Christian Science, many people have found physical, psychological, financial and emotional health, answers to their deepest spiritual questions and an abiding peace. Christian Science recognizes that God is unconditional Love, infinite Mind and supreme Spirit. We are God’s perfect ideas, made in His/Her image and likeness; thus, our nature is spiritual and it is impossible to ever be apart from God. When we realize, through prayer, God’s infinite goodness, we are healed.
Our ordained pastor is the King James Version of the Bible and Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures by Mary Baker Eddy. Christian Science is explained in Science and Health, clarifying the inspired word of the Bible and revealing the principles of healing and harmony that are available to everyone who seeks them.
Christian Science came to the Green Valley area in 1964 when two Christian Scientists held weekly meetings in their home to read the weekly Lesson Sermon. Six people attended the very first such meeting, and it has grown ever since. The current parcel of land was purchased in 1977, and the church edifice was completed in 1987.
We welcome everyone to our Sunday and Wednesday services, and all youngsters up to the age of 20 are welcome in our Sunday School. Child care for those too young for Sunday School is also lovingly provided at all services.
