Moved with joy

Lawrence Musheba Kuseka

When I received a letter of election to membership in The Mother Church from the Christian Science Board of Directors in April 2011, I felt deeply moved by the joy of this news. I had been cherishing the thought of membership since I fell in love with Christian Science in August 2008.

I have been faithful to this prospective “marriage,” in the form of membership in The Mother Church, doing what a responsible spouse does for his/her partner. My faithfulness, commitment, and spirituality were recognized by my branch church in Lusaka, Zambia, when they elected me Second Reader.
