I did not at first take up Christian Science for healing, but for the help it would give me in understanding the Bible; however, from the first knowledge I gained of the truth, I have been able to depend on it for the overcoming of every discord, and have always experienced healing. Our three children, aged nineteen, sixteen, and fourteen years, have known nothing but this Science, and are learning to use their knowledge of the truth at all times. Measles, whooping cough, bowel trouble, colds, toothache, and many other difficulties, including a severe and painful form of rheumatism, have been met and mastered by Christian Science. My husband also has depended entirely on this same truth to meet all his needs.
I feel deeply grateful to Mrs. Eddy for all our literature, grateful for membership in The Mother Church and a branch church, grateful for all the church activities and for the privilege of the Sunday school for the young people and children.—Kewanee, Illinois.
