Forward, Christian Scientists!

LAURA SPENCER DOW

With each clearer awakening of our thought to the divine purpose of Christian Science, we become more humbly grateful to its Discoverer and Founder, Mary Baker Eddy, for her selfless labor for mankind. What deep cause there is for rejoicing that we now are on the threshold of the realization of another of our beloved Leader's cherished desires through the establishment of The Christian Science Pleasant View Home! There, after long years of faithful service for our Cause, loyal Christian Scientists may continue to manifest activity amid peaceful surroundings.

It hath pleased them verily; and their debtors they are. For if the Gentiles have been made partakers of their spiritual things, their duty is also to minister unto them in carnal things."
