Christian Science Nurses
Christian Science nursing is a religious vocation that is distinct from registered or licensed nursing. It provides spiritual reassurance and skilled, practical, physical care to those who are relying on Christian Science prayer for healing, also known as Christian Science treatment.
This prayer-based treatment specifically applies the laws of God that were evident in Christ Jesus’ ministry to address all kinds of challenges, including those involving health. Jesus proved that healing happens when consciousness is more anchored in the authority and laws of God than in material conditions, and healing results.
Christian Science nurses are first and foremost dedicated Christian Scientists. They are trained to provide practical care that meets the patient’s physical need and is consistent with the theology of Christian Science. The heart of their work is to minister to a patient’s spiritual need for love, comfort, and healing. Click here to learn more about CS Nursing and CS Nursing facilities.
