Dear Mrs. Eddy:—Yesterday was communion Sunday in the Christian Science Church, Chicago. I have been all my earth life an Episcopalian and an invalid. But being healed and taught by one of your students, changed my beliefs to understanding. But the sacrament was the hardest belief to give up. It held me for a long time; but it holds me no more. The last link that held me is broken.
I held my first communion yesterday,—the communion with Spirit, the partaking of the bread from heaven,—and it has lifted me higher than bread and wine, matter, ever did. I can better express myself by using the words of a well known hymn:
"Transported by the view, I'm lost
In wonder, love, and praise."
Chicago.
The progress of Christian Science Mind healing is seen in the increasing numbers of those who receive it, and still more in the superior talent of those who are giving themselves to the work of preaching, teaching and exemplifying its quality and power; and yet there is room.
