Words seem so inadequate to express the heartfelt gratitude...

Virginia R. Apsey

Words seem so inadequate to express the heartfelt gratitude I feel for the many and great blessings conferred on me through the spiritual understanding gained by the study and application of Christian Science, that unparalleled gift to the world by our revered Leader, Mary Baker Eddy, its Discoverer and Founder. Thousands in all parts of the world are awakening to the inestimable value of this sacred truth, and more and more are heartfelt praise and thanksgiving being offered to the Giver of all good for the unbounded love and devotion manifested by Mrs. Eddy, God's messenger to this age.

I am most devoutly thankful for the overcoming of many false beliefs, physical and mental, among which are neuritis, bronchitis, sprained ankle, gastritis, and pneumonia. Pneumonia was met and overcome in four days, regardless of marked delirium and a temperature that has too often proved fatal under materia medica treatment. This remarkable demonstration was accomplished through knowing the omnipotence of divine Mind, both through the consecrated loving thought of a practitioner and the patient's faith and cooperation.

I in turn have been permitted to work for others and see their fear changed to thanksgiving. It is my desire to continue in the labor of Love, encouraging the earnest seeker to secure the pearl of great price. I am a member of The Mother Church, also of a branch church, both affording unnumbered opportunities for scientific Christian service. Our textbook, "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures" by Mrs. Eddy, I have studied for some years, have had the great privilege of class instruction, and for some time have been the happy possessor of Mrs. Eddy's books and the authorized literature of Christian Science—inexpressible blessings.
