Christian Science practitioners, Christian Science nurses, and Christian Science teachers
You can contact practitioners by phone or email or make office visits; they’ll be happy to answer questions and pray with you. Christian Science nurses provide help for those under the care of a practitioner and would love to answer questions about their services. Teachers are practitioners who are authorized to teach classes; they are also a great source for answers and prayerful support. None of these people are official representatives or sponsored by the church. They are warm, supportive, individual church members and professionals who are ready and able to help you.
Press and legislative contacts
The division of the Christian Science church which handles media relations and legislative issues is known as the Committee on Publication. Along with the manager and spokesperson in Boston, there are 135 spokespeople in local regions in the U.S. and in other countries around the world.
