I wish to express my gratitude for Christian Science, the law of Truth, which liberates.

A few years ago I was healed instantaneously of appendicitis after asking for help from a practitioner. I was also healed of inherited tuberculosis. A brother and a sister had passed on with this ailment. My mother and members of the family thought that I also had inherited it. But in the study and application of Christian Science we learn the truth of Mrs. Eddy's words in Science and Health (p. 228): "The transmission of disease or of certain idiosyncrasies of mortal mind would be impossible if this great fact of being were learned, — namely, that nothing inharmonious can enter being, for Life is God. Heredity is a prolific subject for mortal belief to pin theories upon; but if we learn that nothing is real but the right, we shall have no dangerous inheritances, and fleshly ills will disappear."

I am very grateful for membership in The Mother Church and in a branch church, and also for class instruction from one of Mrs. Eddy's students. I am grateful for all the activities of the Christian Science organization. Church work is a great joy to me, and I thank God daily for all good. — (Mrs.) Bertha A. Heins, Alameda, California.
