The Blessing of Church Membership

The privilege of applying for membership in The Mother Church is available to all those who believe in the doctrines of Christian Science as presented in its platform and teaching found in the textbook, "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures" by Mary Baker Eddy.

Twice each year applicants are admitted to membership by The Christian Science Board of Directors. (See Manual, Article XIII, Section 2.) The next date of admission is November 1, 1946. Applications to he considered on that date must reach the Clerk not later than September 30, 1946. If those who wish to take this step will forward their applications as early as possible rather than wait until near the closing date, it will greatly facilitate the work in the Clerk's office. Approvers are responsible for the accuracy of the applications and for securing the necessary countersignatures. An Instruction Folder which explains simply and thoroughly all that is required in applying for membership accompanies each application. Please give special attention to the paragraph on page 2 entitled "Form 2."

Application blanks for membership are obtainable at Christian Science Reading Rooms and from clerks of branch churches and societies. Applications may always be obtained from Gordon V. Comer, Clerk, 107 Falmouth Street, Boston 15, Massachusetts.
