It is with deep gratitude for the discovery and founding of Christian Science by our beloved Leader, Mary Baker Eddy, that I give this testimony of the healing of the alcohol, tobacco, and coffee habits.
I was introduced to Christian Science about ten years ago when I was in great financial need. Space does not permit an account of the financial difficulties that were overcome during that period. Although I went through very rough waters for a while, I have never ceased to be grateful for that experience, for when the suggestion of lack comes to me, I say, "It can't frighten me any more!"
At my first reading of the textbook, Science and Health by Mrs. Eddy, I felt as though the pages were illumined, and I was instantly healed of several ailments which were bothering me. Then I wanted to become a member of a Church of Christ, Scientist, for I knew I had found the true path which leads to God.
