Five years ago when Christian Science healed me of a condition which threatened to result in a malignant growth, if an operation was not performed, I thought I knew what gratitude meant; but since then I realize that such a healing was only the forerunner of the Christ—the voice in the wilderness which cried, "Prepare ye the way of the Lord." In the last few months, through Christian Science, I have been sustained and comforted through "the valley of the shadow of death" to such an extent that I have been able to prove for myself and others, in spite of many temptations, that there is no separation from divine Love; no situation in which we are not protected; no decision to be made which Mind does not direct; no sorrow which Truth does not overcome, as we advance in our understanding of man in the image and likeness of his Maker.

I acknowledge with conviction my indebtedness for the class instruction that made it possible for me to attain a demonstrable knowledge of divine Principle which creates and governs the universe and by which we reverse the inharmonious testimony of human experience and affirm and demonstrate the accurate premises and conclusions that obedience to the First Commandment demands.

(Mrs.) Jessie Ellett Mitchell, Downers Grove, Ill.
