A Profitable Meeting

Ernestine W. Brach

The Wednesday evening meeting at the First Church of Christ, Scientist, this week, was such a demonstration of loyalty to Christian Science and its Founder, Mary Baker Eddy, that I feel impelled to send a report of it to the Field.

After the usual opening exercises, the leader of the meeting read extracts from a pamphlet entitled "Christian Science History," contradicting some malicious attacks made upon Christian Science and its Founder. The reading was listened to with profound interest by all present, after which the meeting was given to the people for testimonies.

It was remarkable that all who spoke were men. All the testimonies given were expressions of a firm, unfaltering conviction that Christian Science is the Truth which redeems men from sin and sickness. It seemed as though the supporting power of the masculine element was there represented, acknowledging and protecting the young child—the spiritual idea—and its mother, the Discoverer and Founder of Christian Science, when malice, hate, and envy were aiming to injure them.
