The fund opened on April 5th, 2017. Since our fund opened, we have so far given out 105 grants to patients who needed financial assistance with their Christian Science nursing care or related Christian Science practitioner invoices.
As we continue to work closely with Christian Science facilities, patients, Christian Science nurses, and other Christian Science nursing organizations, we have been increasingly seeing what the “foundation of fellowship” is. As Mrs. Eddy writes:
Having one God, one Mind, unfolds the power that heals the sick, and fulfils these sayings of Scripture, “I am the Lord that healeth thee,” and “I have found a ransom.” When the divine precepts are understood, they unfold the foundation of fellowship, in which one mind is not at war with another, but all have one Spirit, God, one intelligent source, in accordance with the Scriptural command: “Let this Mind be in you, which was also in Christ Jesus” (SH 276:1-9).
This spiritual fellowship shows us the unity of God’s children working together in Science to demonstrate healing. It is a great blessing to have this opportunity to love our neighbor.
