I am sincerely grateful that I had the privilege of attending the Christian Science Sunday School. Opportunity has been afforded me many times throughout the intervening years to prove the truths I learned there, and it is a real joy to testify to the efficacy of this demonstrable Science, as given us by our beloved Leader, Mary Baker Eddy.

Since becoming interested in Christian Science in 1921, I have experienced many beautiful proofs of God's care and guidance. I find that as I understand and apply the teachings of Christian Science given in our textbook, "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures," and other writings by our revered Leader, Mary Baker Eddy, my need is always met.
