Christian Science Nurses complete Fundamentals I Course
We rejoice with the five participants who recently completed the Fundamentals I course for Christian Science nurses which began May 16 in our School of Christian Science Nursing.
We are grateful for this global group! – an expression of part of Tenacre’s current theme from “The Message” Bible – “bringing out the God-colors in the world”. They began their ministries with three weeks of classes in the School, and then joined the ministries in the Willow and Rose settings. Their presence was a blessing to all.
A happy group completed our recent workshop, “The Christian Science Nurse Within You!” in our School of Christian Science Nursing.
Here are some comments from the course participants:
- I am grateful that I could come to learn about Christian Science nursing… I learned better that nurturing and patience are key aspects of Life.
- We covered the full scope of what was needed.
- I’m really grateful I took time for this inspiring workshop. I learned a lot about the God-given qualities that a CS nurse already has and that we as members of The Mother Church already have…
- I’m so glad that now I know that the Manual By-law, “Christian Science Nurse” applies to me. I always skipped over it before.
- I loved everything about this workshop.
- It was very enriching to share the workshop experience with a variety of different people.
- I came away with a much more thorough knowledge of and respect for Christian Science nursing. And I had a great time!
