Volunteer Program
The purpose of the Upward Wing Christian Science Nursing Volunteer Program is to augment the work of the Upward Wing Christian Science Nurses, to broaden the organization's outreach, and support each volunteer in their own individual demonstration of the By-Law for the Christian Science Nurse.
Happiness consists in being and in doing good; only what God gives, and what we give ourselves and others through His tenure, confers happiness; conscious worth satisfies the hungry heart, and nothing else can. Message ’02 17:22-25
…I heard the voice of the Lord, saying, Whom shall I send, and who will go for us? Then said I, Here am I; send me. Isa. 6:8
