The First Church of Christ Scientist, Hong Kong is a two-storey building at 31 MacDonnell Road in Central. Its central roof is pyramidal, and the entrance has stone columns and a portico. Built in 1912, it was extended with a wing in 1956 and has had no major alterations since.

The First Church of Christ Scientist, Hong Kong was built in 1912 by the Christian Science movement and was the first branch of the church in Hong Kong and in Asia. During the Second World War the building was requisitioned and used as a stable; it was repaired after the war and a wing was added in 1956, with no major changes since. It was listed as a Grade II historic building in 1995, the same year the Lord Wilson Heritage Trust funded roof tile repairs.

Visitors encounter Mary Baker Eddy's teachings about spiritual healing through Bible study in the gatherings and services held here. The reading room displays literature that shows how followers apply these principles to their lives.
