Explaining Christian Science to my friends
My name is Jared. I live in Johannesburg, South Africa.
I go to an all-boys school, and there are boys from many different backgrounds. I am in Grade 5 and am the only Christian Scientist in my grade. One of the compulsory subjects I take at school is called Religious Education, where we get to learn about God and different religions.
One day our teacher asked us to write a paragraph about our own religious beliefs. When I was thinking about what I wanted to write, I thought about what I’d learned in the Christian Science Sunday School. Every Sunday morning I get to learn about different stories from the Bible and about how much God loves me.
