Hello Church Family!
 The Spirit of Burning Man "burns" on with our second night of Prayer Watch Friday, September 19th, at 7PM (PST). We had an awesome call last week and feel like this is something the Christian Science movement can contribute so much to. Weekly prayer call - a different topic each week with readings and testimony, inspiration, etc. 

The call-in number is: (712) 432-1212
The meeting id is: 979-828-671.

As we've really committed to this activity, God has continued to bless us with - not surprising! - things to pray for! haha. 

Last night, my wife and I met the head of Christian Science Nurse Journal-Listing who embarked today with the President of The Mother Church on a 9 month tour around the world to support Christian Science nursing! Wow! Talk about 2x2! (Mark 6:7). 

So - here's another great opportunity to pray! 

The work of Christian Science nursing was made manifest in beautiful ways this year at Burning Man. In preparation for tomorrow's call, let's all cherish and pray with The Mother Church Manual bylaw about Christian Science nursing (pg. 49),

"Christian Science Nurse. Article 8. Sect. 31 

A member of The Mother Church who represents himself or herself as a Christian Science nurse shallbe one who has a demonstrable knowledge of Christian Science practice, who thoroughly understands the practical wisdom necessary in a sick room, and who can take proper care of the sick."

This passage from Science and Health is wonderful, also, 
"The nurseshould be cheerful, orderly, punctual, patient, full offaith, — receptive to Truth and Love" (395: 18-20). 

Let's keep this spiritual concept of nursing in thought for everyone from the Euphrates Institute currently in Israel as well as the two traveling nurse missionaries and those all over the world! 

Here's a beautiful video update from our friends at the Euphrates Institute: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8VwBMcK4i3w

Lastly, here's a little video with some footage of our holding a public reading of the Christian Science Bible Lesson on the Venice Beach Boardwalk: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n_D9czu8JMg

We call this activity "Practitioners without Borders." To be totally honest, it was really intense. Super intense. We weren't able to finish the Bible Lesson before we were actually attacked by some folks there on the boardwalk. 

Lesson that we learned? The power of the Christian Science Bible Lesson should not be underestimated - ALSO - the importance of prayerful support from church members during the reading is very, very integral to preparing hearts and sharing the gospel. 

We are going to try it again this Sunday and we would really, really appreciate prayerful backup at 3PM (PST) on Sunday. It makes a huge difference. 

Thank you all for your receptivity and love. Onward and upward we go in the love of Christ! We hope you join us in prayer tomorrow evening! 

Blessings!
 The Christian Science Society of Black Rock City
