On Monday afternoon of 2002 Annual Meeting & Conference, 33 new readers of Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures, from countries including Uganda, Brazil, Germany, Spain, Mexico, and the US, gathered on stage in The Mother Church Extension to share the transforming effect that Science and Health has had on their lives. All 33 new readers—former and current medical practitioners, holistic healers, members of the clergy, and college students, all spiritual seekers—spoke from the heart about how they found the book and what it has meant to them.
Excerpts below form the first of three segments to be shared with Journal readers. September and October issues will feature session participants who found Science and Health between 1996–2002. A brief introduction to the centennial celebration of the chapter called "Fruitage" in Science and Health was given by moderator John Hueffner, a Christian Science practitioner and teacher from Dallas, Texas.
Welcome to this session, "Science and Health—the Comforter speaking to the heart of each of us."
