Rh Singing the Communion Doxology.

Reading of a despatch from the members of the church to Mrs. Eddy.

Reading of “the scientific statement of being” (Science and Health, p. 468), and the correlative Scripture, 1 John 3 : 1-3.

The benediction.

The subject of the special Lesson-Sermon was “Adam, Where Art Thou?” the Golden Text: “Search me, O God, and know my heart: try me, and know my thoughts: and see if there be any wicked way in me, and lead me in the way everlasting.” (Psalms 139 : 23, 24.) The responsive reading was from Psalms 15 : 1-5; 24 : 1-6, 9, 10.

1 Lord, who shall abide in thy tabernacle? who shall dwell in thy holy hill?

2 He that walketh uprightly, and worketh righteousness, and speaketh the truth in his heart.

3 He that backbiteth not with his tongue, nor doeth evil to his neighbor, nor taketh up a reproach against his neighbor.

4 In whose eyes a vile person is contemned; but he honoreth them that fear the Lord. He that sweareth to his own hurt, and changeth not.

5 He that putteth not out his money to usury, nor taketh reward against the innocent. He that doeth these things shall never be moved.

1 The earth is the Lord's, and the fulness thereof; the world, and they that dwell therein.

2 For he hath founded it upon the seas, and established it upon the floods.
