Children and teens have a natural affinity for spirituality. If they are encouraged to develop spiritual awareness while they are young, they gain a trust in life and a sense of self that serves them all their lives.

The churches of Religious Science International are committed to providing a spiritual education for children and teens. Through the teaching of Science of Mind®, our youth learn spiritual values, principles and skills that enable them to live happy, creative and effective lives.

Teen church is for youth ages 13-18. The purpose of teen church is for teens to develop an awareness of the Divine Presence within; to learn to trust in their inner wisdom and guidance; to accept their inherent value and unique self-worth; to discover and use the creative power of mind in their everyday lives; and to experience and express love for themselves and one another.

In the church setting teens share their dreams, fears and experiences in a safe, spiritual environment where they find acceptance, encouragement and personal spiritual growth. They develop confidence within themselves and respect for the value of their self. RSI sponsors Teen Seminars twice a year: Winter and Summer.  Teens throughout the U.S. and Canada are welcome. The seminars encourage spiritual growth in an environment which offers freedom of expression within the framework of planned activities.

Junior church is for the younger children starting about age 4 to 5.  Children at this age are allowed to explore their special individual creativity while being taught they are spiritual beings.  Building positive self-esteem while having fun allows them to participate in a loving environment and learn to express  love for themselves and others.
