Church Manual By-law

The By-law “Christian Science Nurse” from the Manual of The Mother Church is foundational to every activity at the BA, including its mission to “provide a refuge and services that minister to the needs of mankind with Christian Science nursing.” For individuals representing themselves as Christian Science nurses, prayerful and thoughtful consideration of the requirements Mrs. Eddy established in this By-law is fundamental.
