The Communion Service of the Mother Church, which was held Sunday, June 12, will be remembered by all who participated in it as impressively harmonious and helpful. The day was a perfect one, and although no general invitation had been issued and it was understood that a large gathering was not expected this year, nevertheless every part of the auditorium was crowded with eager and expectant worshipers at each of the three services.
Our Leader's Hymn, "Blest Christmas Morn," No. 186, and "Here, O my Lord," No. 166, were used, and the Scripture reading was John, 21 : 1-6, 10-17. Early in the service the following brief message from the Pastor Emeritus, Rev. Mary Baker G. Eddy, was read:—
Pleasant View, Concord, N. H., June 8, 1904.
The First Church of Christ, Scientist, Boston, Mass.
My Beloved Brethren:—As you are not expecting an invitation to visit Concord at each successive Communion season, I shall not disappoint any hope of your receiving it.
