WELCOME

WELCOME

From the August 2002 issue of The Christian Science Journal


"Light, and life." Those three words were the guiding vision for 2002 Annual Meeting & Conference, in Boston, June 1-5. And they're also the theme of this month's Journal, which reports on that remarkable event.

The words are Mary Baker Eddy's, written to one of her closest students, Edward Kimball, in 1893: "For the world to understand me in my true light, and life, would do more for our Cause than aught else could."

She was a woman who knew it was God, and not herself personally, who was to be credited for her extraordinary achievements. She knew her "light"—the discovery she called Christian Science—was destined to change humanity forever. And she knew "life"—birthing her discovery, healing with it, articulating it, and living it, proving it—had endless potential to help humankind.
