   Christian Science organization at the University of Washington was formed in 1917 by seven students, guided by the provisions in The Mother Church Manual of Mary Baker Eddy. Then, as today, the students were "consecrating themselves, their thoughts, words and actions to the service of humanity, and to the sacred course of Truth as taught in Christian Science."

   The organization's primary activity has always been its weekly religious meeting, which includes testimonies of healing through the applied understanding of Christian Science. These meetings are held in Eagleson hall every Thursday evening of the school year, including examination weeks, at 7:45.

   Students, faculty members and friends are also welcomed at the organization's annual lecture, given by a member of the Board of Lectureship of The Mother Church, First Church of Christ, Scientist, in Boston, Massachusetts.

   The organization student house at East 43rd and 15th N.E. was purchased in 1945 with the help of alumni and friends. At the house, students may read or borrow the Bible and the writings of Mary Baker Eddy, study their University work, eat their lunches and enjoy satisfying friendships. The present structure is soon to be, replaced by a modern building which will provide adequate space for all organization activities, including the Thursday evening meetings.
