WANT TO PRAY FOR THE WORLD? START HERE...
Jenny Sawyer reflects on the power of prayer in seeing world events in a different light...
"Prayer helps us understand God in a way that makes us so sure of His goodness that it replaces any fear or worry that something bad could exist. But sometimes, before we can even get there, anxiety or disbelief creeps in and says, “Yeah, but who am Ito think I could pray effectively enough that my prayer can make a difference here?” That’s when it helps to know what it means to be God’s child.
I was praying about this later, because I realized that “God’s child” felt like just words to me. And as I prayed, it was like my thoughts were a room where the lights were going from low and dim to full and bright."

About us...
We are a small oasis of peace in the city of Haarlem where you can come to read and study the Bible and Christian Science texts, sit quietly to pray, drink coffee or discuss aspects of Christian healing. We also hold weekly Christian Science church services each Sunday morning and on the 4th Wednesday of each month in the evening.
What is Christian Science?
Christian Science is a way to use the teachings of Christ Jesus and Bible texts to heal and transform people's lives through prayer
How was Christian Science discovered?
Christian Science was discovered by Mary Baker Eddy, more than 100 years ago. She developed the laws of Christian Science after being healed of critical injuries. Through her study of the Bible, she rediscovered the same healing techniques used by Jesus.
Does Christian Science work?
There are many tens of thousands of documented and verified healings published. Everything from broken bones to cancer, panic attacks to mental illness; but also finding work, improving personal finances and improving self-esteem.
“ God is light, and in him is no darkness at all. ”
