'Heartfelt greetings'

Thank you very much for the wonderful Sentinel. It greatly enriches my thinking to read and study your articles. I especially liked the testimonials, "Healing of groin condition" in the issue of March22, and Gratitude plays a key role in healing" in the issue of April 5. I translated them and gave them to friends.

Sarah Brokensha's article, "Church across the miles" (April 12), made a deep impression on me. And I like many other articles. The pictures are discreet and very expressive. Using the dictionary, I can read and understand all, and I try to read every article.

Hearfelt greetings, and all the best for you and your work.

Article eases stress

Congratulations! The five contribution answering the question "How do you deal with stress?" in the May 3 issue brought a deep healing to my life.

Currently I have been experiencing chains of stressful events from unfinished projects and upcoming appointments. These have made my life so mean, and I felt I was becoming confused.

But I'm impressed and excited because the contributors to this article struck a chord in me with their wonderful in sights that are surely relevant that are relevant to my situation. I am touched with their lovely thoughts. Their message has reached home, and I strongly feel lives are surely touched. Well done!

Touched by volunteers

I was 4 ½ years old in 1918, when I was first enrolled in a Christian Science Sunday School. I absorbed what I learned there like a sponge. At each phase of life I have been grateful for Christian Science and have tried to live it, but I have been particularly grateful to have been introduced to it so young.

Yesterday theSentinel for May 10 ["Volunteering—catch the spirit"] arrived. Once I started reading it, I couldn't put it down. Of course, over the year I've been aware of the free distribution of the Christian Science magazines and have donated them for this purpose. But this issue on volunteering touched me as nothing else has. The volunteers in these articles go out to the homeless, needy, lonely, and forgoten, with literature in hand and with love! And they can see the responses then and there.

Publishing these stories helps show what is working. In my opinion, this issue is one of the most beautiful you have ever published.

'Power to heal'

I loved reading "Volunteers of comfort," by Margaret Rogers [May 10]. She spoke so easily about attending interfaith events and being able to incorporate the knowledge gained from them into her spiritual understanding. she also gently showed that Mary Baker Eddy was one of many spiritual seers who understood that life is completely spiritual, and yet she also showed that Mrs. Eddy's unusual insights was in her understanding that this spiritual perfection has the power to heal.

Again, the Sentinel has brought forth Mrs. Eddy's teachings in a lovely and understandable way.

Thank you!
