A Wednesday Evening Meeting

Louise Schmidt

At First Church of Christ, Scientist, I. O. H. Hall, Preston Street, Baltimore, Md., some most interesting testimonies were given Wednesday evening, January 24. The hall was filled with those who know what Christian Science has done for them, as well as many who came to hear and see what this leaven is that seems to be finding its way into every condition of mortal thought, like the "holy waters" pictured in Ezekiel, 47, which, issuing "out from under the threshold of the house eastward" gradually rise and spread until they become a river that "could not be passed over;" and behold, "every thing that liveth, which moveth, whithersoever the rivers shall come, shall live ... for they shall be healed."

After singing hymn 141, the meeting was opened by Edward H. Hammond, C.S.D., First Reader, reading from John 12, then from "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures" by Mary Baker G. Eddy, page 212. After a few introductory remarks, in which he brought out the thought that only through the spiritual interpretation as given in our text-book, Science and Health, can we understand that the Bible is not contradictory, Mr. Hammond announced that the meeting was open for testimonials.
