Testimonies of Healing

Verification of Healings

These healings are verified by people who can vouch for the testifier or who know of the healing. Examples of Christian healing from individuals and families around the world have been published in the Christian Science periodicals for well over 125 years.

Prayer after a fall

About a year ago, I fell on hard tile. A few days later, I began to sense what I thought might be some broken ribs.

Cervical cancer diagnosis reversed

No disease is big enough to have any power because God is the only power.

Gaming addiction healed

Several years ago I started working for a bank, and most of my job required working on a computer. I was fascinated by it and bought a computer for myself to use at home.

Abdominal pain disappears

In the book of Psalms in the Bible, it says, “Bless the Lord, O my soul, and forget not all his benefits” ( 103:2 ). With a grateful heart, I would like to bear witness to God’s goodness.

‘I let go of the battle’

In late autumn, a few years ago, I went for a bicycle ride in Central Park in New York City. On my second lap around the park, a pedestrian unexpectedly darted between the bicyclists and runners, colliding with my bike.

Chronic cough healed

Years ago, after I became engaged while on a summer holiday with my boyfriend and his family, I began suffering with symptoms of deep congestion in the lungs. I brushed this aside as just a common cold, but by Christmas, when I was visiting my parents, my dad expressed concern about the wrenching, hacking sound of my cough and other frightening symptoms.

No more need for glasses

Years ago, I wore glasses because I had vision problems, including depth perception, tunnel vision, and crossed eyes. When I decided to treat this condition through Christian Science, I didn’t pray to make the material condition of my eyes better, but tried to better understand my spiritual sense of vision and its purpose.

A normal, natural birth

When I was pregnant with my first child, I prayed daily with a Christian Science practitioner to prepare myself for the child’s arrival. This served me well on many occasions.

No evidence of detached retinas

As a young man, I was hired to sing the solo on Sundays at a Christian Science church. Within a few weeks it was clear to me that this practical religion of divine Love was exactly what I wanted to pursue.

Dog bounces back

Although mature in dog years, my chocolate-colored Labrador retriever, Casey, has always been quite active and healthy. He loves to run and swim, and has five other dogs as full-time companions.
