The protecting power bestowed
on one by his heavenly Father,
divine Love, enables him to de-
fend himself daily against tempta-
tion and bodily suffering This dem-
onstrable truth is pointed up in
the Lesson-Sermon titled “God the
Preserver of Alen” to be read in
all Churches of Christ, Scientist,
on Sunday, June 15. The Golden
Text promises: “He that dwelleth
in the secret place of the most
High shall abide under the shadow
of the Almighty” (Psalms 91:1).
One of the citations to be heard
from the Bible is: “Verily, verily.

This’ unfailing healing truth
taught by the Master is available
to all here and now, as explained
in t • fo! iwh r correlal re pas-
sage from the Christian Science
textbook, “Science and Health
with Key to the Scriptures,” by
Mary Baker Eddy: “Divine Love
always has met and always will
meet every human need. It is not

only for a select number or for a
limited period of time, since to all
mankind and in every hour, divine
Love supplies all good.’ .p. 494).

of Dallas during a recent 10-day
period in a campaign honoring
the company president’s birthday,
he learned this week.
“Life insurance is finding better
acceptance these days,” Condon
said, “and it’s simply a matter of
seeing enough people, and finding
out what they want to accomplish
in their insurance program”.
Insurance underwriters for the
company were divided into' four
groups for a series of six 10-day
contests and Condon led his group
for one, of the 10-day periods, re-
ceiving a prize for his success.
