Pilgrim Colors

The hues of November are Puritan brown and Mayflower russet for leaves drifting down. Clouds are a homespun of Miles Standish gray and Priscilla-blue sky tints, slipping away. The Plymouth-rock colors of earth in a blend of charcoal and sepia and old green extend into woods of maroon-swarthy; and over-spread with vines of wild-turkey and harvest red. A season of log-cabin darkness, November! A month that will, at the drop of a feather, fade the war-bonnet fires of fall to an ember with the somber banks of its Pilgrim-plain weather!

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.
