Testimonies of Healing

I enclose you a testimonial from one whose case is the most...

From the February 1891 issue of The Christian Science Journal


I enclose you a testimonial from one whose case is the most marked and best known in the city—yet whose pastor calls it the "work of the devil," and claims he had rather his daughter would lie sick than be healed that way:—

For eighteen months, I was a wretched sufferer, confined to the bed with what the doctors called spinal disease. Was in the hospital six months, and had surgical operations; but all to no purpose. The doctors gave no hope of any help, and my husband finally said, if I could never be any better, he would at least have me with him while I did live. Last spring he was prevailed upon to call a Christian Scientist. I was relieved at the first treatment; and on the third day got up, dressed, and walked into the next room without help. I gained right along, and have never had an attack of my old trouble since. I bless God for what His Truth has brought to me, to my husband and to three little children.

Notwithstanding the good work that has been done here, at times it looks as if we must lose our Scientist because of the little people are willing to render him, and because other fields are waiting—but he continues humble and patient, and is working quietly and faithfully. We have a little band of about fifteen, all loyal to Science and Health.—
