I have a Sister who has gone As Written: gon through Mrs Fenns class, of Omaha Neb- several months ago, who is meeting with good success, in healing the sick. I am very anxious As Written: ancious to go through class and want your advice in regard to my going through class. I feel that I would receive more Spiritual understanding, from you, than anyoneAs Written:any one else As Written: els living. I want instructions from the very best teacher, I am so anxious As Written: ancious for more Spiritual understanding, I will go just as far in Divine Science as I am capable of going.

Would it be asking too much of you to write and let me know?
