EXTRACT FROM A LETTER

W. B. D.

I am pleased to be able to report to you how divine Love has placed seed, soil, and sower in this field. Ten weeks ago, when we first came here, we found from six to twelve Scientists attending services. We immediately took hold of the work and procured a suitable place, with the result that at one of our recent Wednesday evening meetings we had out to hear the Truth from eighty to ninety individuals. Only forty or forty-five of these are regulars, the rest being investigators, the result being that the tone against Christian Science has changed very much in this field.

One minister, who had preached two sermons against the healing of Christian Science, told some friends of ours that since we had come here, he had seen enough practical results to know that it was along the line of Apostolic work, and that he would never again say anything against Christian Science healing so long as they stuck to Apostolic teachings.

Another minister said that he believed God to be divine Principle, and has been to see a patient who is now under our charge, saying he was glad to note the improvement in that patient, and when the patient recovered he would like to talk with him further.—W. B. D., South Bend., Indiana.
