Among the Churches
Current Notes
Quincy, Mass.—Dedicatory services were held yesterday [Nov.2] at the Christian Science church on Greenleaf Street.
The Quincy church owes its beginning to the efforts of a loyal student of Mary Baker Eddy, formerly living in Brain-tree, through whose efforts a meeting was held May 3, 1901, in a private house at Braintree with six persons present. The number increased until twenty or more attended the service, and then a Christian Science Society was organized and public meetings were held in Pythian Hall. On December 29 a Sunday school was formed with ten pupils.
In January of the next year a regular organization was decided upon and "First Church of Christ, Scientist, of Braintree, Massachusetts," was organized with twelve charter members. An old homestead was leased and remodeled to make it suitable for church purposes, and the first service was held there Sunday, February 23, 1902, with an experience and testimony meeting the following Wednesday evening. A reading room was opened in the same building in April. After two years this building became so crowded that Sunday services were resumed in Pythian Hall, and later the whole second floor of Long's Block was rented.
