CHURCH-BUILDING CARDS

From the November 1887 issue of The Christian Science Journal


On another page is given a fac-simile of the Card which friends of Christian Science are selling in aid of the Church Fund.

It is the desire of every Christian Scientist to provide our Leader with a Church-building of her own. This edifice is to be a testimonial to the Discoverer and Founder of Christian Science, and a visible expression of the love and gratitude in which our Teacher is held by the many thousands who have been blessed by her life and labors. Many who have been released from the bondage of sickness have gratefully sent us their mites, desiring to bear a part in forwarding this glorious cause; and it is to be hoped that all who have been benefited in any way, by this treatment, will remember our Church, and work for it, feeling that this is God's Temple, neither mine nor thine.

Will every reader of this Journal help us in distributing these little Cards, for they have a mission. Wherever they go they serve as a guide to people who are seeking information concerning Christian Science; and if we are faithful in distributing them, we shall save many from the printed snares that are strown about so thickly. Therefore do not be tempted to say, "I will give something to the Cause, but do not care for the Cards." Many have not only sent us the money for their Cards, but have also returned to us the whole amount received through their sale.
