Christian Society Thanksgiving Day Service

The Christian Science Society of Bermuda will be hosting its Annual Thanksgiving Day Service on Thursday, November 25 at 6:00pm, at their Reading Room location, 6 Dundonald St Hamilton, and via Zoom.

A spokesperson said, “The Christian Science Society has provided this service for the community for the past 61 years, and it brings great joy to the members to share the Bible Lesson on gratitude, and to hear from those in attendance of what they are thankful for today. This is the first time that the service will be broadcast via Zoom, and the members are eager to share the service with those attendees outside of Bermuda.

“Even though Thanksgiving is a US holiday, we are all keenly aware of the importance of giving thanks for the smallest of blessings, particularly today, when we all need to feel God’s goodness. The service is our expression of gratitude in support of our community.

“We have been able to demonstrate supply, caring for others, and healing through our confidence in God’s great love. For this we are infinitely grateful, and we believe that today, more than ever before, we must share this sense of God’s love with our community for healing and for a greater sense of love to be felt in our community.”

“The service consists of readings from the King James Version of the Bible and from the Christian Science textbook, Science & Health with Key to Scriptures, by the founder of Christian Science, Mary Baker Eddy. The service includes hymn singing and a solo. There will also be the opportunity for the congregation to give testimonies of gratitude for blessings.

“Those attending will be required to follow the government’s protocols to wear masks, socially distance, and to sanitize hands. There is limited seating and individuals who desire to attend in person must reserve their space by calling 332-6030, by noon on Thursday, or email christian.science.bda@gmail.com The Zoom information is:

“The Christian Science church quietly prays for our community and supports its members and anyone who is in need of healing prayer. It is often confused with Scientology, and it is important to note that there is no correlation at all. Christian Science was founded by Mary Baker Eddy in 1869, and is the ‘Science of Christianity’, teaching us how to live as Christ Jesus lived in the most practical way possible. It is an ‘irresistible power for good in today’s distraught world-“–L. Ivimy Gwalter, former Teacher and president of the Mother Church in Boston MA’.
