The mystery of meeting

Life is filled with pleasant mysteries. The sunrise itself is a daily mystery to the watching eye. But the pleasantest mystery (almost as frequent as sunrise) is the mystery of meeting. A youm and I meet; the mystery is self-declared at that moment. We know nothing of each other beyond the introductory smile

some amiable conversation. But the mystery will unravel in time. The unfolding of friendship - when the mystery of meeting is quite forgotten - is like the bright hours of a new day.

Why is Christian Science in our name?

Our name is about honesty. The Monitor is owned by The Christian Science Church, and we’ve always been transparent about that.

The Church publishes the Monitor because it sees good journalism as vital to progress in the world. Since 1908, we’ve aimed “to injure no man, but to bless all mankind,” as our founder, Mary Baker Eddy, put it.

Here, you’ll find award-winning journalism not driven by commercial influences – a news organization that takes seriously its mission to uplift the world by seeking solutions and finding reasons for credible hope.
