Newry Reporter

Newry, County Down, Eire (Society).

Christian Science was first introduced in this district in 1919, when a family of Christian Scientists came to reside in Rostrevor, and in 1920 another family came to Goraghwood. Soon services were being conducted each Sunday morning in a private house.

In 1925, it was found necessary to hire a room in Newry, where the services were continued. Three years later one of the original members was listed in The Christian Science Journal a an authorized Christian Science practitioner. As the interest spread a Sunday School was opened, and in 1933 the first Thanksgiving service was held.
