Personal appeals for money or other charitable aid are not always genuine. Every such appeal made to a Christian Scientist should be carefully investigated before responding to it. From time to time we receive reports of disappointing experiences which have occurred through a disregard of this precaution. By carefully verifying appeals of this kind before acting on them, the alert Christian Scientist is safeguarded from the plausible pleas of the impostor and the unworthy and is better able to bestow his charitable gifts with wisdom and discretion. More than this, he is helping to make the activity of the impostor less profitable.
It will be the privilege of every member of The Mother Church or of one of its branches to hear by means of a tape recording the inspiring message of the Tuesday Evening Meeting held in the Extension of The Mother Church on June 3.
