==History==
Christian Science presence first came to Pensacola in [[1895]]. It was reorganized in [[1905]] as an official branch of [[Wikipedia:The First Church of Christ, Scientist (Boston, Massachusetts)|the Mother Church]] in Boston. Services were held in various downtown buildings until the church purchased a property at 15 West [[Belmont Street]] in [[1920]].
In [[1967]], the church purchased a larger property at 4880 North [[9th Avenue]]. Construction of a new building began in April [[1972]], and the first service was held on [[December 10]], [[1974]]. The building was officially dedicated on [[December 29]] of that year. The North 9th Avenue church property has since been sold and the church met in a storefront at 5555-D North Davis Highway until a new church was constructed on Nine Mile Road. The first services in the Nine Mile Rd location were held on Sunday, August 2, 2020.
The Sunday service is at 10:30am 30 am with Sunday School at the same hour, and the Wednesday Evening evening meeting is at 7:00pm00 pm. Child care is available for infants and young children during the services. The Reading Room is available before and after church services and on Mondays and Thursdays from 12:00 noon to 2:00pm, the 2nd & 4th Tuesdays from 10:00am to 12:00pm00 pm, and from noon to 2:00pm on Saturdays.
