ONE FATHER-MOTHER

[Of Special Interest to Children]

MARJORIE MACARTNEY

Ellen knew nothing of Christian Science when her parents told her that she had been adopted. Though they explained to her that she had been taken into their home because they wanted and loved her so much, Ellen was disturbed. She felt that somehow she was different from the children with whom she played. She felt that her friends and schoolmates had real parents and that she did not.

Then one Sunday morning Ellen accepted an invitation to attend a Christian Science Sunday School with a friend. She enjoyed it so much that she asked to go again, and soon she was enrolled as a regular pupil. Ellen began, through the study of the Bible and of the Christian Science textbook, "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures" by Mary Baker Eddy, to learn about God and her relationship to Him. She soon discovered that she was His child, and that God was her Father-Mother— her divine Parent.
