Testimonies of Healing

From the January 1917 issue of The Christian Science Journal


It is over seventeen years since I first heard of Christian Science. At that time I was a physical wreck. There was an abnormal growth on my breast, for which an operation was to be performed, but I was asked to try Christian Science and did so, with the result that in five days' absent treatment I was healed. I tried to be obedient and read the Bible and Science and Health, knowing I had found the truth, the "pearl of great price." Since then no drugs have been used in our family.

Although I have had to call on Christian Science many times, it has never failed. My mother has been healed of a malignant growth of the stomach, which was pronounced incurable by two reputable physicians. The first doctor who was called said she could not live long; but. "thanks be to God, which giveth us the victory." she is alive and well today. My children have been cured of measles, chicken-pox, whooping cough, bad cuts, and a severe fracture of the arm. I have been healed of a severe sprain and a very bad burn on the arm.

I am deeply grateful to God for Christian Science, which means more and more to me as I continue to study its teachings.—
