Primary class instruction in Christian Science is a 12-day intensive course in Christian healing, as taught by Mary Baker Eddy in the chapter “Recapitulation” in Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures. Christian Science teachers are certified by the Board of Education of The First Church of Christ, Scientist.

If you are prayerfully considering class instruction, please become familiar with Articles XXVI and XXVII in the Manual of The Mother Church. Applicants for class instruction will be asked to complete an application form, attend an interview in person or by phone or Skype, and provide three references. Tuition is $100.00. Pupils are expected to make the class sessions and homework their sole focus for the twelve days of class. To apply for admission to the next class, please contact the teacher.

Upon completion of class, pupils become members of The Christian Science Association of Pupils of Mary Bothwell, C.S.B. The Association holds an annual meeting to receive post-graduate instruction from the teacher. It is expected that pupils will do their utmost to attend every Association meeting.
