The Call to Brooklyn of Bro. F. E. Mason

From the August 1889 issue of The Christian Science Journal


The Brooklyn Association has grown to be one of the largest in the country. In another column will be found the account of its action taken immediately after the National Association in the organization of the "First Church of Christ (Scientist)" in that city. A unanimous call was immediately extended to Brother F. E. Mason to become their pastor. The call has been accepted, and the pastor will enter immediately on the discharge of his duties.

At a meeting of the Church of Christ (Scientist) of Boston, held the 15th July, expressions of love and God-speed were exchanged between the members and the assistant pastor. He was called by our Teacher to aid in her pastorate and on the Journal, at a critical moment in the history of Science, and has discharged his duties with earnestness.

The Journal adds to this kindly mention of an esteemed collaborator, a reflection as to the call that is coming up from every part of the country, for persons competent to declare the Word of Science from the desk. Hundreds are now getting the training in Bible class and conference meeting, requisite to fit them for this work. From such sources will come a supply of speakers for all these places.
