Practicing Christian Science

[Of Special Interest to Children]

Once a little boy, three years old, set out to practice Christian Science. His name was Peter. Peter had attended a Christian Science Sunday School for about a year. One morning, his mother found him straightening up his playroom. When she asked him why he was doing this at that hour of the day, he said, "I'm going to play office."

A few times Peter, with his mother, had visited the office of a Christian Science practitioner. Once he had asked what the practitioner was doing there. Then it was explained to him that people came to that office to be healed. Peter could understand a little bit of what was told him about God's ever-present love for everyone, which made it impossible for error to trouble God's children.

So this morning, after he had put all his toys away, Peter said to his mother: "If God is Love, then God is Love always. And when we say my prayer, then we feel better, 'cause all error goes out."
