Plainfield Church, a Shining Light

Recently I realized that it has been over ten years since I first arrived at Plainfield Church.

This milestone has me thinking about everything that learning Christian Science, and being a member of this church, has brought into my life. There have been healings — an amazing number of healings, — blessings, and countless opportunities since arriving here, so much so, that I just don’t feel much similarity with the person I used to be.

Everything used to be intensely difficult without this wonderful way of life to rely upon. And, I wouldn’t say life is easy here in Plainfield; but there is a big difference between that hopeless existence I had before, and how I now have gained much faith in God and understanding of Science, where joyful progress is being made daily.

I feel great gratitude to God, for Christ Jesus and Mary Baker Eddy and the instruction and example they have left for us, for the early workers, this church and my practitioner, and every member of this church, past and present, whose combined work has gone into making Plainfield the shining light that it is. It means so much to me, and I just know that the needs of all mankind will bring them here as well, and each will be blessed.
