Giving and receiving are both part of a divine continuum of prosperity and abundance. Sacred Service Angels give freely of their time and talent, and in doing so, the church thrives. The church, in turn, gives of its treasury and ministries to serve members of the spiritual community. Members of the spiritual community share the healing they receive as blessings in the larger world. The world rejoices and supports this healing circulation of unconditional love, which of course, inspires and manifests again as volunteers.
Would you like to be part of this continuum of love? At East Bay Church of Religious Science, we value whatever gift you choose to bring as a volunteer. We truly welcome and appreciate your help in every ministry; in every endeavor we undertake.
If you would like to serve in any area of the church, please send an email to ebcrsorg@gmail.com or fill out our online form below and let us know you are interested in volunteering. Not sure where you want to apply the gift of your service? Send us an email anyway and let’s talk about it!
Thank you and God bless you.

East Bay is blessed with beautiful grounds which invite many possibilities. The combination of rich soil, wonderful sun exposure, and powerful prayers spoken on our land has resulted in thriving plants that are very happy to live in our garden. Many members of the church have had a hand in creating the garden we enjoy today. Rev. Elouise and Teya Brown know the history of many of the more established plants that were selected years ago with care and purpose. We want to share this abundant space with as many spirits as we can!
