In the urgency of a hurried departure I was introduced to Christian Science by a request that I hold in thought, whenever exigency required, the statement, "God is All-in-all" (Science and Health by Mrs. Eddy, p. 113). This was done, although not understandingly, on several occasions, and later I was led to purchase a copy of the Bible and the textbook. Then church services were attended, and the efficacy of the teachings was further proved. Since that time there have been many healings, and the circle of interested parties has widened, including besides others my wife and two young daughters.
I have been healed of blood poisoning; a poisonous spider bite was quickly healed, as was an infection behind the thumb nail. We have also had wonderful protection while traveling by automobile.
One of our girls had an attack of mumps which was overcome the same day. She was marvelously protected when she fell one day from a second story. A sprained ankle was healed with but momentary disability, and an accompanying fever was quickly overcome. At one time this same child fell into a pruned shrub, and suffered a cut below one eye, with consequent closing of the eyes. After loving work had been done by a practitioner, one eye opened, and several days later the other also. Finally discharge from the wound ceased.
