First Church of Christ Scientist forms Athens origin tale
The First Church of Christ Scientist in Athens traces its roots to a nucleus of less than a dozen residents who met in homes in 1910 to form a faith based on Jesus Christ and Mary Baker Eddy. By 1928 the church building was completed and dedicated with Mother Church approval, after a key gift from William Minear and early leaders like Mrs. Fred W. Bush and Mrs. Ada Johnson helped organize and grow the congregation.
