Testimonies of Healing

From the February 1948 issue of The Christian Science Journal


In "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures" (p. 24) our Leader, Mary Baker Eddy, says, "He to whom 'the arm of the Lord' is revealed will believe our report, and rise into newness of life with regeneration." In her Message to The Mother Church for 1901 (p. 9) she says, "Christian Science shows clearly that God is the only generating or regenerating power." I wish to relate my experience, which testifies to the practicality of our revered Leader's teachings.

In 1932 I first got a glimpse of what Christian Science really is when I started to read Science and Health, and after finishing the chapter on Prayer I knew that here was the answer to much that perplexed me.

A short time later a condition of the gums, called pyorrhea, which a dentist said was incurable, became so bothersome that I felt I needed treatment. The decision had to be made between returning to a dentist and trying Christian Science. The latter was chosen, and I called on a practitioner. In two treatments the healing was complete.
