Silverton, Ore. (Society).—To one passing the northwest corner of Third and Lewis Streets, the new church building being erected by the Christian Science Society comes as a very pleasing surprise. But while the building itself may be a surprise in beauty and simplicity, the fact that a congregation of such apparently limited numbers should be able to construct a church home of such beauty, speaks well for the earnestness and devotion of its members. The main auditorium has a seating capacity of one hundred and twenty-five, which may be augmented to one hundred and fifty by opening the doors leading into the foyer.

Through aid from the Trustees under the Will of Mary Baker Eddy, this society becomes a direct recipient of assistance derived from the efforts of the Discoverer and Founder of Christian Science, Mary Baker Eddy; and it stands as a monument to a religion that has brought health, happiness, and contentment to many, and is an outward manifestation of their sincere gratitude to the Giver of all gifts, to the God who is Love.

Christian Science came to Silverton in 1907. Increasing interest was manifested. In 1919 a Christian Science Society was organized with twenty-three charter members, and a church lot was purchased. A library of the works of Mary Baker Eddy and authorized Christian Science literature has been maintained, and the society has come in for its full share in opportunities to contribute to War Relief, Camp Welfare, and all other similar activities.
