Loved One Gatherings

Staying Connected

CherishAbility offers monthly online gatherings—that are accessible!

Partnering with Christian Science camps and organizations, these monthly gatherings explore lessons from the Bible and the teachings of Christian Science; facilitate activities such as crafting, singing, baking, playing games, and more; and encourage socializing and bonding with fellow Christian Scientists.

“Our son is loving the ‘loved one’ gatherings! They have really been a wonderful addition to his monthly activities and socializing … which he does not do a lot of. I want you to know that these virtual gatherings are meaningful to him, and you have made it super easy for him to join and feel included as a new participant.”
