Evanston Review

Evanston, Illinois
(Second Church)

The edifice of Second Church of Christ, Scientist, at Park Place and Hurd Avenue, was officially dedicated with two services, on Sunday, February 25, 1951, one in the morning, the other in the afternoon. At both services a brief history of the church was read, dating from 1929 and following the successive steps to the completion of the church edifice. The church's slender spire and its pillared entrance have become North Evanston landmarks. The beautiful auditorium of the church has a seating capacity of four hundred, as has the Sunday School room.

Fifty years after the founding of The First Church of Christ, Scientist, in Boston, the members of Evanston's First Church of Christ, Scientist, decided in 1929 that the time had come to establish another branch church in Evanston, since their church edifice was no longer large enough to serve adequately its rapidly growing membership and congregation.
