The Blind Restored to Sight

F. L. W.

The following extract from a letter tells something of what is being accomplished by Christian Science in London.

It is simply marvelous, the wonders that are being accomplished here in London, in this conservative old city, with its old customs and ideas. The deeper one goes into Christian Science, the more absorbing it becomes, until our old habits, ideas, and desires, and everything begin to change. What a new life, what new views, how everything changes! And one cannot help seeing the truth of it more and more as one receives constant new proof of its wonderful power. I can well remember when we were only about ten, and now we are hundreds, and when one hears the testimonies of one's friends, and is made aware of what Christian Science is doing in different cases, and two years, nay, one year, in some cases, have made these wonderful changes, is it not glorious?

A great friend of mine, in fact he became interested in Christian Science through us, a German baron, has given up his diplomatic career to go into Christian Science work. At first it seemed very hard to overcome all the seeming obstacles, as he had a very important position and had been trained for a court life; besides, he will come into large estates, etc., but it has all been overcome and he is now doing beautiful work. Then an English nobleman, an earl, has also gone into the work, and when his father passed away, he had to take his seat in the House of Lords: so it marches on. He has rented his castle for a number of years so he can devote more time to the work and give up giving large house parties.
