First
First Church of Christ, Scientist in Greenville, South Carolina, is a branch of The Mother Church in Boston, Massachusetts, founded by Mary Baker Eddy in 1879. The church aims to commemorate the teachings of Christ and restore the healing practices of primitive Christianity through its services and community gatherings.
Services at the church are unique in that they are conducted by two lay readers rather than personal preachers or pastors, focusing on Bible Lessons published in The Christian Science Quarterly. The congregation also holds a midweek testimony meeting, providing a space for members to share their experiences and express gratitude for the blessings received through prayer and the study of Christian Science.
