Of Good Report
A member of The Mother Church, now living in one of the Fiji Islands, wrote to the Clerk some months ago expressing the hope that at some time she could meet a lecturer or worker in the Field who might be passing through, since the Islands are a port of call for ships and planes en route to and from New Zealand and Australia. She and her husband regularly hold Sunday services and Wednesday meetings, although they know of no one else in the Islands who is interested.
Within two months it was possible to arrange a meeting between a member of The Christian Science Board of Lectureship and this earnest student at a port in Fiji. Speaking of her experience, she writes: "This was a joyous privilege, and the benefit I derived from this meeting can never be expressed in words. The evidence of God's ever-present and loving care is being demonstrated daily in my experience and my cup is 'pressed down, ... and running over' with gratitude for Christian Science."
A German woman received clothing bearing the label of the Christian Science War Relief Committee. Her letter of thanks, written in Lithuanian, told of her hope of finding a sister who had gone to America and from whom she had not heard in many years. The translator to whom the letter was sent for translation into English proved to be her missing sister.
