I have been in the Christian Science Sunday School since the age of six, and can never fully express my gratitude in words for all the good I have learned there. I have learned that we are God's children; that His love protects us; and that we dwell forever under His everlasting care. I have gained such an uplifted sense of joy and freedom. During an epidemic of measles I was absolutely protected from contagion, even though my cousin, living in the same house, contracted the disease through fear.

One Sunday morning I awoke with a very painful toothache. I said nothing whatever to any one about it. I went to Sunday school as usual; and during the morning my Sunday school teacher remarked to the class, "If you were suffering from a toothache you would not calmly let it take possession of you; you would realize that it never was of God's creation, and therefore it was never real." From that moment I was completely healed.

I can never cease to be grateful for the higher and fuller interpretation of the Bible that I gain each year in the Sunday school. My heart is full of gratitude for the teachings of Christian Science; to my loving Sunday school teacher; and to the practitioner who has so lovingly helped me.—(Miss) Riccarda Forrest, Paris, France.
