The Discoverer and Founder of Christian Science, Mary Baker Eddy, enjoins her followers to announce first the name of the author when quoting or reading from her published writings (see Manual of The Mother Church, Art. XV, Sect. 1). It is also important to give the correct title of the book. When reading or quoting from the book called Prose Works, one should announce the title of the specific book being used and not refer to Prose Works as the source. This term is not the title which Mrs. Eddy gives to any one of her books; it designates the published compilation of her prose works other than "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures" and the Church Manual.
The thousands of Christian Scientists in the armed services, who are serving their respective countries throughout the world, are being helped by The Mother Church through the Fund for Armed Services Activities.
Christian Science Ministers are paid from this Fund. These workers conduct Christian Science services, give treatments, and visit and work with those in Veterans Hospitals who seek and rely wholly on Christian Science for healing. They contact the soldiers, sailors, airmen, and marines who indicate Christian Science as their religious preference, giving them Service Edition sets of the Bible and "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures" by Mary Baker Eddy and, in the case of young recruits, helping them to adjust to their military experience. Quantities of authorized Christian Science literature are distributed among the Armed Forces personnel.
