GUARDIANSHIP OF CHURCH FUNDS
Article XXIV
Church Edifice a Testimonial. SECTION 1. Whereas, on March 20, 1895,
the Christian Science Board of Directors, in behalf of The First
Church of Christ, Scientist, Boston, Mass., presented to Rev. Mary
Baker Eddy their church edifice as a Testimonial of this Church's
love and gratitude, and she, with grateful acknowledgments thereof,
declined to receive this munificent gift, she now understands the
financial situation between the Christian Science Board of Directors
and said Church to be as follows:--
Financial Situation. SECTION 2. The Christian Science Board of
Directors owns the church edifices, with the land whereon they stand,
legally; and the Church members own the aforesaid premises and
buildings, beneficially. After the first church was built, the
balance of the building funds, which remained in the hands of the
Directors, belonged to the Church, and not solely to the Directors.
