Testimonies of Healing

It is with sincere gratitude for Christian Science...

From the December 1951 issue of The Christian Science Journal


It is with sincere gratitude for Christian Science and our beloved Leader, Mrs. Eddy, that I wish to give thanks for the many blessings I have received.

Christian Science was recommended to my mother years ago by a friend, and through the help of a Christian Science practitioner she was completely restored to health. My mother then took up Christian Science, and I have had it all my life. Our family have had many proofs of its healing power. I should like to relate one of my own healings.

When I was twenty years of age, I was stricken with spinal meningitis and was moved to a hospital, because I was in an unconscious state and those with whom I was living were not Christian Scientists. I was given medical treatment, but I did not respond to it, and the doctors said there was no chance of my recovery. Then Christian Science treatment was given, and I recovered very rapidly. The nurses told me later that while I was semiconscious I repeated the Lord's Prayer many times. I cannot begin to express my gratitude for this healing and all the other healings I have had in Christian Science.
