The little bird in my hand was free to fly away. We’d banded him as part of an Audubon Society effort and the time had come for his release. But even when I opened my hand to let him go, he didn’t budge. What did he need? He just needed a little lift. When I gave him even the tiniest nudge upward, off he flew. Free!
What is it that gives this kind of lift to our lives? Good news, for one thing. And what better news than the promise that health and freedom can be ours today. Yes, today!

Leide Lessa
Leide worked for 14 years at the Christian Science Publishing Society, the last six as Managing Editor of The Herald of Christian Science, published regularly in 14 languages. During the ten years that Leide owned her language institute, she participated in national and international teachers conferences. She also helped organize local Christian Science youth summits. After witnessing healings from students and colleagues who asked her to pray for them, she felt that there is no higher profession than dedicating her life to helping others through metaphysical scientific prayer. So she sold her school and became a Christian Science practitioner in 1998 and a Christian Science teacher in 2009.
Max Francisco
Max has been singing since the age of six and plays several instruments namely, violin, viola caipira and the guitar. Max has performed throughout Brazil, participating in major events such as Planeta Atlântida (Florianópolis), Barretos Peon Festival, and important festivals, among them the Viola de Todos Cantos (Rede Globo), Raul Gil’s calf in 2005 (Max and Capella), partner of Gian, the duo Gian & Giovani, in 2015 (Gian & Giulliano). He has performed at Brazilian Day, and toured with singer João Gabriel, throughout the United States.

Christian Science teaches how to find a deep-settled calm within ourselves that cannot be disrupted by fear or outward disturbances. In this talk, Lari will share examples of how the ideas in the Bible and the writings of Mary Baker Eddy can help us find lasting peace and bring healing to our lives.

The dependable healing power of Christ’s Christianity. A lecture by Kari Mashos, C.S.B.
Saturday, May 18 11:00 a.m. First Church of Christ, Scientist 3218 W. Arkansas Lane Arlington, TX 76016
“Buildings of great cultural significance, like the Acropolis in Athens, draw visitors from around the world to admire their historical importance, as well as their beauty and ingenuity. I love seeing the Acropolis every time I go home to Athens, but what’s really captured my attention is the careful restoration of its monuments.
Restoration
is a theme that most of us can relate to. Whether it’s the restoration
of a relationship, financial restoration after a hardship, or a
restoration of our bodies, the desire to bring some aspect of our lives
back to wholeness is a fairly universal one. But is restoration always possible? And if so, how?
Through my study of the Bible and Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures
by Mary Baker Eddy—the textbook of Christian Science, which has helped
me understand the practicality and spiritual significance of the
Bible—I’ve learned that the restoration of our bodies and lives is
actually completely natural. Yet unlike the restoration of the
Acropolis, this spiritual restoration—the regeneration of our lives
through the power of God—is not the effort to bring back an object to a
close version of its original. Instead, the divine healing method that
restores lives is a spiritual awakening. This holy inspiration does not
restore us from a lost state; instead, it is the revelation that we can
never lose what our divine, loving Father gives us: health, wholeness,
peace.
In this lecture, I’ll share healings from my own life that shed more light on this spiritual approach to restoration, and on the system of healing that allows each of us to feel more of the regenerating power of God in our lives: Christian Science. “
