Manuscript Description: Handwritten in pen by Mary Baker Eddy on lined paper.
Editorial Note:

Mary Baker Eddy gave the sermon, for which this document is an outline, at Chickering Hall.

The Christian Science Journal of April 1886 reported on the service: "After the sermon, thirty-three men and women stood up and were received into church-membership, Mrs. Eddy making a short address, and reading to them the brief articles of faith.

"Then followed the Communion Service. After a short statement of the spiritual intent of the eucharist, the congregation sat in silence, while the pastor knelt in silent prayer.

"The hall was crowded, though the day was unpleasant, friends coming from Fall River, Worcester, and many other places. After service was over, the people were a long time in vacating the hall, partly because so many desired to speak with Mrs. Eddy."
