Some eleven years ago Christian Science was brought to the notice of my wife and myself. At the time it was first mentioned to us, my wife was suffering from a very severe sore throat which had become chronic. I was naturally very anxious about her, and had obtained the best medical aid that could be got here, but with seemingly no relief.
My wife in conversation on the subject of Christian Science, was healed by the spoken word, and has so remained. This healing of my wife impressed me with the fact that Christian Science must be the Truth. I shall ever be grateful to the kind friend who brought the knowledge of this revealed Truth to my home.
I had been for years a constant attendant at the Methodist Church, but I did not, and could not agree with all things preached there. I always believed that God was a God of Love, not a God of hate and revenge, so I accepted the teachings of Christian Science, being glad to follow in the footsteps of my wife who had proved so conclusively that the healing power of God was here and now, that it had never been lost, simply hidden by superstition and ignorance. My wife and myself have gone through class, being students of the loyal student who first brought Christian Science to us.
