What is a Christian Science Reading Room?

In our Master’s Sermon on the Mount, we read:

“…when thou prayest, enter into thy closet, and when thou hast shut thy door, pray to thy Father which is in secret; and thy Father which seeth in secret shall reward thee openly.” (Matthew 6:6)

Our Reading Room provides a peaceful place to fulfill this command. You are welcome here.
