2018 Annual Meeting 2018 ANNUAL MEETING If we live in the Spirit, let us also walk in the Spirit. —Galatians 5:25 JUNE 2–4 Program and guide WELCOME Welcome to Annual Meeting! This Manual-based activity is more than a yearly embrace of one another in the work of Church, however joyful and inspiring these shared moments are. As with the earliest disciples when they gathered together after our Master’s ascension, we, too, continually find there is more to discover, more to engage with, and more that burns within our hearts of the living Word. It impels us to walk in the Spirit each day, finding in every activity and every encounter an opportunity to witness to God’s goodness and grace. It’s not always easy. The resistance the first Christians faced from entrenched material systems of thought and power could have been discouraging, even overwhelming. But the joy of knowing God’s true nature as All—as eternal Life and infinite Love— sustained them. And following Christ Jesus brought them step by step into a new sense of reality and its present possibilities. Whether taking those footsteps in the first century or in the 21st, it brings disciples of any age the same satisfying sense of fellowship and purpose in this holiest Cause. When we gather like this, we feel the power of Spirit animating us as one global movement. As we support one another and respond to the world around us, we recognize how essential and needed each of us is. With renewed affection and expectation, let us walk forward in the Spirit together. With all love, Rich Evans Robin Hoagland Allison W. Phinney Scott Preller Margaret Rogers The Christian Science Board of Directors 2 TABLE of contents SCHEDULE OF EVENTS Saturday, June 2 . 4 Sunday, June 3 . 4 Monday, June 4: Annual Meeting 5 CHILDREN AND CHILDCARE . 6 INFORMATION You Could be in Pictures! . 8 Cell Phones and Other Electronic Devices . 8 Christian Science Practitioner and Christian Science Nursing Help . 8 Interpretation . 8 Amplification Assistance . 8 Wheelchairs . 9 Display Tables . 9 Parking . 9–10 Emergencies . 10 Meals . 10 Lost and Found . 10 Church Website . 10 HOSPITALITY CENTER . .12 YOU CAN ALSO VISIT . .13 The Mother Church Reading Room . 13 The Mary Baker Eddy Library . 13 Tours of The Mother Church . 13 Walking Tours of the Plaza . 13 Mapparium Tours . 13 HYMN 601 . .14 HYMN 453 . 16 MAP OF THE CHRISTIAN SCIENCE PLAZA . 18 3 SCHEDULE of events SATURDAY, JUNE 2 2:00 p.m. – READING ROOMS AND SUNDAY SCHOOLS 3:30 p.m. IN TODAY’S WORLD Participate in a lively discussion on making these spiritual resources practical avenues for our communities’ needs.

TABLE OF CONTENTS FROM THE DIRECTOR 2 THE UNITED NATIONS 5 AND GLOBAL CITIZENSHIP KEYNOTE ADDRESS Ban Ki-moon GLOBAL CITIZENSHIP: 13 THE THREE-DIMENSIONAL WORLD OF BAN KI-MOON RESPONSE Sara Sievers 2 LIU INSTITUTE | ASIA LEADERSHIP FORUM FROM THE DIRECTOR 3 FROM THE DIRECTOR All 350 tickets were claimed immediately for Ban Ki-moon’s lecture at the Liu Institute’s Asia Leadership Forum on September 12, 2018. Even if this wasn’t completely surprising, it was gratifying to see the excitement across campus and beyond for the eighth secretary-general of the United Nations. To fill the Patricia George Decio Theatre at the DeBartolo Performing Arts Center was an important success for the Liu Institute in our mission to educate about Asia. The day was also successful in a different sense. Before his lecture Ban took time to meet with students, including some from South Korea. He was so warm and invested in the conversation that it ran late, throwing off his carefully coordinated schedule. Ultimately, this didn’t matter. What mattered was that a young South Korean woman later told us that many of her countrymen and women consider Ban the most influential person from their country. As such, spending time with him was one of the most significant and inspiring moments of her life. And to have met Ban in South Bend, and not Seoul, was almost beyond belief.
