A few words of explanation to readers of the Journal seem desirable in reference to our efforts in behalf of the Church Building Fund.
For some time the desirability of having in Boston a building for church services conducted in accordance with the teachings of Christian Science, has been apparent.
It seems eminently proper that, unlike other buildings of this character, commonly reared by a few individuals, this one should spring up—a representation of spontaneity of thought and action—a memorial of love, hope, and thankfulness from the thousands all over the land who have felt the healing touch of the Divine Hand stretched forth to them through Christian Science. This Mother Church may well commemorate the unity of grateful hearts.
