Our Pastor
Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures by Mary Baker Eddy states: “Jesus established his church and maintained his mission on a spiritual foundation of Christ-healing.” The power of prayer lies not in faith alone but in a deeper understanding of God’s divine laws that embrace humanity. First Church of Christ, Scientist has been serving the spiritual needs of Great Falls and it's surrounding area for over 100 years. Our members strive to live the Christianity Jesus Christ taught and lived. Christianity that is practical and transforming, which heals physically as well as morally. You are welcome to attend our services and visit our Reading Room.
The Bible, from Genesis to Revelation, is the foundation for the theology and practice of Christian Science. Mary Baker Eddy, who discovered and founded Christian Science, saw that God’s laws are powerful spiritual mandates, always present and operating to heal, to redeem, and to bless humanity. To her, Christian Science is the practical Christianity that Jesus taught. She wanted her Church’s Pastor to be as pure, constant, and powerful as God’s Word itself. To this end, in 1895 she ordained as Pastor the Bible and her book, Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures which opens up the Bible in its application to all human needs. Together, these two books are a mentor, spiritual resource, and timeless guide open to all.
