Rotation in office

Dear Members and Friends,

Our dear friend and colleague Robin Hoagland asked to complete her service as a member of the Christian Science Board of Directors at the end of December 2021. Over the years, Robin has given immeasurably to The Mother Church as Manager of Practitioner Activities, a member of the Board of Lectureship, a Trustee of the Publishing Society, and as a Director. While it is easy to list the offices she has held, the more significant point to share is how much it has meant to those who have worked with her day in and day out to be embraced by her strong metaphysics, sense of humor, intelligence, and commitment to being inclusive. These qualities, so evident in Robin, have made serving with her a joy and privilege. We rejoice to know she will continue to bring these blessings to her healing practice, teaching, branch church involvement, and ongoing contributions to the Church’s periodicals. 

As Robin moves forward, it is a joy to announce that Mary Alice Rose, from Brookeville, Maryland, US, will be joining the Board of Directors. She comes with strong experience in serving the Cause of Christian Science as a practitioner, teacher, lecturer, and Committee on Publication for Maryland. For the last year or so, she has also been serving The Mother Church as Chief Information Officer, where her practical application of metaphysical ideas has greatly helped to unify and harmonize many significant initiatives.
