All are welcome for our free drop-in meditation class, Mondays 10-11 AM in the Learning Center. Foothills member Sandy Roos leads the class.

We all carry so much tension and stress; meditation is a proven way to build in a sense of calm and well-being.”

Christian Science Reading Room

Healing in Christian Science is joyful— it’s the natural result of understanding God as divine Life and Love.

In this inspirational talk, speaker Ann Kneeland shares real-life examples of spiritual healing. Her examples show how fear, illness, and polarization dissolve as we discover God’s pure and spiritual creation. This discovery brings joy, healing, and freedom for everyone.

Ann Kneeland, CS is a practitioner of Christian Science healing from San Rafael. She travels internationally to speak to audiences as a member of the Christian Science Board of Lectureship.

The talk will be offered twice: Friday, October 16 at 7pm and Saturday, October 17 at 10am at the Christian Science Reading Room in Palo Alto (459 California Avenue) and streamed live: https://www.cspaloalto.org/event-details/healing-with-joy-discovering-the-power-of-love-2026-10-16-19-00-1

This event is a gift to the community from the members of First Church of Christ, Scientist, Palo Alto. For more information, visit:&nbsp;www.cspaloalto.org
