Church

ELEANOR HALVERSON

THE Christian Science church, established by the Discoverer and Founder of Christian Science, Mary Baker Eddy, affords shelter and protection to Christian Scientists,—a place where their mutual spiritual interests may be enhanced through organized effort. There all who are, and all who are learning to become, Christian Scientists may gain the true meaning of divine Love, which our Leader tells us, in "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures" (p. 113), is "the vital part, the heart and soul of Christian Science."

While it is not expected that students of this Science will by their lives express the spirit of their religion better than do their Leader's writings, it lies within their power to present this religion as attractive to those around them, according to their honesty and sincerity of purpose in obeying the divine Principle, rules, and admonitions contained in its textbooks, and their ability to demonstrate the healing power which distinguishes it from all other religions.

Our Leader's wisdom and foresight in perfecting this organization, that every earnest seeker for this healing truth may enjoy the comradeship, encouragement, cooperation, and support of every other Christianly scientific thinker and worker, is cause for unbounded gratitude on the part of its members and of all those who are looking forward to becoming members. And how better could this gratitude be expressed than by earnest study of the Church Manual by Mrs. Eddy, and prompt, intelligent obedience to its requirements.
