First Church of Christ, Scientist, Chagrin Falls, OH.
|
Our church and its members have been an active part of the Chagrin Falls community for many years. The church building is located at the corner of West Washington and Walnut streets across from the Village Hall.
We are a loving congregation of individuals and families from Chagrin Falls and surrounding communities in Northeast Ohio. Our members hold careers in business, education, government, construction, community affairs, technology --nearly every walk of life!
We are known for our joyous, upbeat attitudes, as well as our love for God, Christ Jesus and all humanity. Members and regular attendees are encouraged to apply the principles of Christian Science in their daily lives for physical healing and to solve all kinds of problems.
Our public church services include readings from the Bible and the Christian Science textbook, Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures by Mary Baker Eddy. Mrs. Eddy discovered the principles of Christian Science in the mid-1800s. Later she wrote her textbook and founded The First Church of Christ, Scientist, in Boston, MA - known as The Mother Church. Our church is a branch of The Mother Church. Mrs. Eddy went on to lead the Christian Science movement for many decades.

Our Christian Science Reading Room is open to the public.

Our church also maintains a public Christian Science Reading Room, located on the Triangle, in Chagrin Falls. The Reading Room has two sections: 1) a bookstore for purchases of Christian Science books and publications, Bibles, and Bible study aids; and 2) a study room for research and quiet contemplation.
In addition, each year our church sponsors free lectures about Christian Science for the community. These lectures address current issues through a healing perspective.
Visitors are always welcome to attend our services, visit our Reading Room, and enroll their children in our Sunday School.
