The National Council of Churches' historic archive of denominational membership statistics, which for Divine Science records 7,000 members in 1935 and 7,107 members in 1953, with no later published figures. The archive itself carries no single publication year, being an ongoing historical record rather than a dated report.

Assessment
Reliability Tier
2
Tier two: an ecumenical body's historic archive of denominational statistics compiled from member and cooperating churches' own reports, one step removed from Divine Science's own record keeping rather than an independently audited census.
