What is a Religious Science
Practitioner?
The Religious Science Practitioner is one who has a
deep realization and conviction of the abiding
harmony at the center of everything, and is devoted
to facilitate this awareness in others.
What is Spiritual Mind
Treatment?
Spiritual Mind Treatment is the healing of the mind,
body, and experiences through the use of Spiritual
Mind Treatment or Affirmative Prayer.
Affirmative Prayer is the art and science of
consciously aligning our thought with Divine mind so
that perfect action can flow freely. It is seeing
beyond appearances to the Truth of our Being, and
allowing us to experience the Truth.
The alignment is not done to or for the client, but
through the practitioner. Affirmative Prayer creates
an atmosphere in which the Presence of the Spirit is
experienced within consciousness, causing a change
in life experiences.
May I Consult Other
Professionals While Working with a Practitioner?
Yes. We believe God or Spirit works through all
channels for healing. A client may work with a
physician, attorney, psychologist or any other
professional.
How Do I Work with My
Practitioner?
Make use of the Ministry of Prayer by making Prayer
Requests.
Prayer request forms are located on the foyer table
at the church, in the monthly newsletter and through
the prayer request page at this site. Requests are
placed in a confidential box and handled by the
practitioners.
Visit with a Practitioner on duty after the Sunday
Celebration Services.
Make an appointment with a Practitioner for a full
session: During this time together, the Practitioner
meets with the client in a format somewhat similar
to a counseling session in a safe, comfortable
space. The Practitioner listens to the client’s
concerns and assists the client gain clarity and
awareness.
After discovering the mental cause of the situation,
the Practitioner uncovers the Spiritual Principle
involved in the healing. Thus the client gains a new
perspective and receives support by accepting the
Truth of his or her Being. A spiritual Mind
Treatment is done for the client. Suggestions for
affirmations and meditations are often made in order
to encourage the client's continual growth and
spiritual unfoldment.
The work of the Practitioner is a professional
service. Suggested fee is $35 per session. Consult
with your Practitioner if other arrangements are
necessary, as services are never denied due to
inability to pay.

Science of Mind. A
philosophy, a faith, a way of life
Science of Mind philosophy explains that the effects
of life (what we perceive in the physical world) are
the results of a mental cause (what we think or
believe at some level). Through compassionate
listening and dialogue, a Practitioner can help
discover the mental cause behind discord. Spiritual
Mind Treatment (Affirmative Prayer) initiates a new
mental cause, changing discord and disorder to peace
and harmony.
Practitioners work at the level of spiritual
consciousness. We do not profess to know all the
answers, nor do we attempt to ‘fix’ any problems. We
apply spiritual principles to human concerns and
affirm that through Divine Right Action, all needs
are met.
