Students
Dear Students,
Our 2027 Association meeting date is August 7th.
In a message to her church, Mary Baker Eddy said, “… Christian Scientists, trust, and trusting, you will find divine Science glorifies the cross and crowns the association with our Saviour in his life of love” (‘02 19). Our work for this year’s meeting of The Christian Science Association of Students of Mark Swinney, CSB is grounded in following our Saviour’s example, especially in the glory of knowing spiritual identity.
Our Leader said, “Self-renunciation of all that constitutes a so-called material man, and the acknowledgment and achievement of his spiritual identity as the child of God, is Science that opens the very flood-gates of heaven; whence good flows into every avenue of being, cleansing mortals of all uncleanness, destroying all suffering, and demonstrating the true image and likeness” (Mis., p. 185). Together, we will open heaven’s flood-gates through a deep exploration of the spiritual identity we each have as the children of God.
In preparation, here are some pertinent citations for you from the Bible and Mary Baker Eddy’s writings:

“The associations of the pupils of loyal teachers shall convene annually,” Mary Baker Eddy instructs in the Church Manual, p. 84. We each are so very grateful for the privilege of convening together, face to face. Devoting a day to immersing yourself in the truth is a most loving, substantial gift to yourself.
I will see you at 9:00 AM, August 1st, in the Sheraton ballroom. “Behold, I send an Angel before thee, to keep thee in the way, and to bring thee into the place which I have prepared” (Exodus 23:20).
With much love,
Mark Swinney
