Why is Christian Science in our name?

Our name is about honesty. The Monitor is owned by The Christian Science Church, and we’ve always been transparent about that.

The Church publishes the Monitor because it sees good journalism as vital to progress in the world. Since 1908, we’ve aimed “to injure no man, but to bless all mankind,” as our founder, Mary Baker Eddy, put it.

Here, you’ll find award-winning journalism not driven by commercial influences – a news organization that takes seriously its mission to uplift the world by seeking solutions and finding reasons for credible hope.

May 23, 2025 Society for Features Journalism recognizes Monitor journalists

Before we get to today’s stories, we are delighted to share that yesterday, the Society for Features Journalism recognized several Monitor stories in its Division 2 Excellence-in-Features 2025 contest. They are:

In first place, for the Arts & Culture Criticism Portfolio: Film critic Peter Rainer’s reviews of “Perfect Days,” “Anora,” and “A Real Pain.” Judges wrote: Readers “get a strong understanding of what happens in the films without being bashed over the head with how they should feel about those movies. The writer … nudges readers to see for themselves, and that’s what elevates this work.”

In third place, for Inclusion & Representation in Features: Ken Makin’s “Walking in the path of the Harlem Renaissance”; Ira Porter’s “Comeback college: How Morris Brown kept its doors open”; and Cameron Pugh’s “Pregnant Black women feel lost in the medical system. Doulas offer guidance – and a voice.”

The society’s annual awards recognize “stories that illuminate everyday lives and the rich diversity of our individual experiences.” Please take a moment to read these stories if you haven’t already, and congratulations to our writers and their dedicated editors, Yvonne Zipp and Kim Campbell.

˜
Editor’s note: We won’t publish on Monday, May 26, Memorial Day in the U.S. Look for your next Daily on Tuesday.
