I was indeed a weary pilgrim, wandering hungry and athirst in the desert, when a messenger of this Christ-teaching presented Christian Science to me.

The first Wednesday evening meeting I attended was in Kansas City, Mo., some ten years ago, in an auditorium in which there were more than a thousand people. I knew but one person in that great audience with whom I might speak, but before leaving the church that evening I had met many men and women, each one with a loving, helpful thought for me. Surely they had left the ninety and nine and gone out into the wilderness to find the lost one; and having found that one, reflected the light and warmth of divine Love.
