I wish to thank God for Christian Science and for our beloved Leader, Mary Baker Eddy.

When first I heard of Christian Science, I was living in California, and was suffering terribly from homesickness for England and "my ain folk"; consequently, I was not well. I had bronchitis annually, and fear, self-pity, and resentment followed. I was a mental and physical wreck.

Mrs. Eddy writes in "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures" (p. 494), "Divine Love always has met and always will meet every human need." A friend of my husband's saw my need, and lent me Science and Health, saying, "Read this book with an open mind, 'And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free'" (John 8:32). I read it, and I also attended a church service. I felt immediately uplifted, and after reading the textbook through, I discarded glasses which had been worn constantly for a year or two, the oculist having told me I should always have to wear them for chronic astigmatism. I found great comfort and healing power in the study of the Bible and of the Christian Science literature, which I understand better every day. Divine Love provided for me and guided me, with my family, back to England.
