Dear Mr. Hargreaves,
A few months ago, I was given your book, The Christian
Science Revolution in Thought, by a friend who said she had
known you when she lived in London.
My reason for writing to you is to try to express my great
gratitude for the book. After a lifetime of being in
Christian Science, I became Journal-listed a year ago.
This has caused me to experience kinds of cases and situations
quite different from what I had known before. My friend
knew of my interest in your writing and supplied the book
hitherto unknown to me.
My class instruction in California in 1962 was indeed thorough
and satisfying, and I am grateful that our Association is still
active. Yet, when I received your book, this solid work on
Christian Science so extended my grasp of Mrs. Eddy's writings
and Jesus' teachings that it appeared to be a wonderful answer
to many new questions.
The book has helped me to see more clearly than before that
Christian Science is the Christ, Truth, and my practice
has become more effective and the healings appear to be quicker
and without so much process.
As we know, a Christian Science treatment goes on being
effective and active forever, accomplishing the purpose for
which it is given. The care you took to put your
understanding and examples in writing is continuing to bear
fruit in the substantial health, happiness and understanding for
me and for those who call on me. For this, I am profoundly
grateful, and I thank you.
Sincerely and cordially,
