TMC
plans Annual Meeting 2009
Dear
Fellow Members and Friends,
It’s
only a month away from Annual Meeting 2009! The Christian Science
Board of Directors looks forward to sharing updates about the Church
and its activities as well as some thoughtful ideas about what it
means to be of "one accord in one place" (Acts 2:1, 4). It
is an opportunity to come together for a Pentecostal day.
While
many travel to Boston, far more attend the meeting via the Web. The
main events will be webcast in either audio or video on
www.churchofchristscientist.org/annualmeeting.
Here is what you can expect.
Monday,
June 8, 1 pm, Annual Meeting
Annual
Meeting takes place in Boston and is video webcast live. The meeting
begins at 1 pm EDT (17 UTC) and will last approximately 90 minutes.
