This abandoned church, once home to the 10th Church of Christ Scientist, features the following quote from Mary Baker Eddy on the facade to the right of the doors:
Divine love always has met and always will meet every human need. Mary Baker Eddy.
This quote can be found on page 494 of "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures" by Mary Baker Eddy, the founder of the Christian Science denomination. Baker Eddy lived from 1821-1910 and founded Christian Science after she experienced a miraculous healing from an accident.
To the left of the doors is the following quote:
Come unto me all that labor and are heavy laden and I will give you rest. Jesus.
This quote is from Matthew 11:28.
