Letters to our Leader

Beloit, Wis., July 14, 1905.
Rev. Mary Baker Eddy,
Pleasant View, Concord, N. H.

Beloved Leader:—It is with hearts full of gratitude to you, and of love for The Mother Church, that we desire to express ourselves as a church. At a business meeting held some two years ago, our church voted to send the collection, which was not to be less than fifty dollars, on the first Sunday of each quarter, to The Mother Church Building Fund, until The Mother Church is completed. We took our quarterly collection for this purpose July 2, and at our semiannual meeting we raised the amount to one hundred dollars. Following this, the motion was made that we lend our local church building fund to the Lord by turning the full amount, one hundred and twelve dollars and seven cents, over to The Mother Church Building Fund. As it was lying idle in the bank, this motion met a hearty response.

The following Sunday, our Sunday School voted to send all the money in the Sunday School treasury, four dollars and seventy-eight cents, also the Sunday School Church Building Fund of eighteen dollars and twenty-eight cents, to The Mother Church Building Fund. This may bring to mind the widow's mite, but if it be given in love it does its required work.
