A Good Word from Galveston

James D. Sherwood

I am happy to report that Christian Science is established in Galveston on a firm basis after many a heart-ache and bitter disappointment, accompanied by doubts and fears while the foundation was being laid.

We organized First Church of Christ, Scientist, Galveston, in November, 1896, with three members. At the following Communion service one member was added, and then another, until we had seven. Then seven more were admitted, and again at our last Communion seven others united, making twenty-one members at present, with an attendance of forty to sixty.

We have rented a building unique in design and beautiful for situation. It contains three large rooms which are used for Church services, Sunday School, and reading room and dispensary. We have two services on Sunday and the Wednesday evening meeting. Love and unity prevail, and to many who have attended these meetings have blessings come. Frequently at the Wednesday evening meetings testimony of excellent healing is given. I send this to the Weekly, hoping it will be helpful to all who are working in the vineyard of Mind-healing and trying to realize the ever-presence of God as a healing and saving Principle.

James D. Sherwood.
