My mother was reared in a Christian home, but as she grew to young womanhood she found that she could not accept religion as it had been presented to her. After her marriage she became concerned with what she would do when she had children and could give them no religious teaching. One day a neighbor gave her a copy of Science and Health by Mrs. Eddy to read. This proved to be her answer. Consequently, my brother, sister, and I had the wonderful privilege of attending the Christian Science Sunday School.
I am increasingly grateful to God for Christian Science, and for Mrs. Eddy, who was able to present it to us in such a practical and provable fashion. I am grateful for divine protection and guidance experienced in many ways, to be a member of The Mother Church, for active membership in a branch church, for class instruction, and for the association meetings where we receive yearly refreshment in the truth.
During the years of economic depression I was never without employment. At one time I left one job to take another one which offered much better pay. After two years at this new job, I was given notice to leave because the one whose place I had taken wanted the job again. It was in a large office building, and there were many remarks made by different ones regarding the injustice to me.
