Christian Science chaplains

If you are serving in the Armed Forces, you can contact a Christian Scientist serving as a Protestant Chaplain in the Armed Forces. Local branches may sponsor non-military chaplains who serve local prisons or other institutions in your area. more

The Christian Science pastor

It is common for people to want to speak with a church pastor. The Christian Science pastor is available around the clock. That's because our pastor is not a person, but two books: the Bible and Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures by Mary Baker Eddy. You can bring your thoughts and questions to these books, and you will find the answers and help you're looking for.
