Testimonies of Healing

For over twenty-five years I have...

From the February 1941 issue of The Christian Science Journal


For over twenty-five years I have enjoyed the benefits which come to us through the study and application of Christian Science, and words cannot sufficiently express my gratitude for the blessings I have received, and for the freedom it offers to the whole world, especially freedom from fear.

I became interested in this Science through the loving offer of a neighbor to lend me some of the Christian Science literature, which I eagerly accepted. She lent me the textbook, "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures" by Mary Baker Eddy. After reading a portion of the first page of the opening chapter, entitled "Prayer," I slept for several minutes, the first refreshing sleep I had had for several months. When I awakened I felt a decided change in my mental and physical condition.

I was suffering from what the doctors called complete physical exhaustion, and after the encouragement received through reading the literature and textbook I asked for help from a practitioner I had not been able to eat or sleep normally, but with the aid of a Christian Science nurse in the home and the loving help and encouragement of the practitioner, I soon began to improve, and within two weeks was able to take up my duties in the home.
