CHRISTIAN SCIENCE IN THE WAR

divine Love has provided for me so that for the present I need no help. I am very grateful to have been led to Christian Science and it is my sincere desire to express in my daily life the teachings of Christian Science.”

Kind deeds of peace and love betray
Where'er the stream has found its way,”

says one of our hymns and the excerpts which follow surely furnish illuminating proof of this fact.

“Just a short note to inform you that we have duly received the money and the groceries, and to express our deepest thanks for the gift. May God bless you. I want to tell you how glad I am for having been led to Christian Science, for I now have much more faith in God than before. I also greatly enjoy the Christian Science literature, and as soon as my husband has a position we will subscribe ourselves. Again, our heartfelt thanks to all the givers.”

“Your relief money has helped me out of many a strait in these difficult times. How often has want appeared at my door before I received your present. God has helped me again. He does not forsake us. Since I have turned to Christian Science I have peace and quiet. Every day I see the good, for which I am thankful to God. And I am also thankful that He led me to Christian Science. Our Leader, Mrs. Eddy, must have been a pious and God-fearing woman, whom God had appointed to bring, through her great love, blessings and peace to so many people. What a noble and rich heritage she has left us!”

“I consider it my duty to convey to you my sincerest thanks for the loving gifts from The Mother Church in Boston extended to me through your Relief Committee. I have also read a great deal in Der Herold and am pleased to say that my condition shows a marked improvement.”
