Gold Coast lecture - Curing the Incurable

Fruitage Gold Coast

Curing the Incurable
Sofitel Hotel

In response to the church’s prayers for journalists, a newspaper person called the church and asked if they would had some special event for the Easter section. Yes, the lecture! The church placed banners on their church and on the main roundabout in town. Several people called to ask for additional information the day of the lecture, and all decided to come.

One visitor said she picked up a woman who was walking home carrying groceries and offered her a lift. Then told her she was going to a talk and why didn’t she come along. They both came to the lecture.

Several people talked to me afterward saying they were Catholic but got practical ideas on how to pray that they could use in their life. Others told me stories of how they found Christian Science and liked the logic of it, as well as the logic of the lecture.

A visitor ordered MBE: Christian Healer, since the church was out. Another visitor said she’d like to come to the Reading Room, but wasn’t available on the “Open House” day. Could you come another time? Yes! Four visitors purchased Science and Health and a fifth visitor was given a copy.

A newer student of Christian Science said this was their second time to hear a lecture, and was finding lectures very helpful in learning more about Christian Science.

About 50 people including 26 newcomers participated in this lecture.
An inspired Easter to all. He is risen!~Elise
