I am very grateful for the Christian Science Sunday School, where I was first taught the basic, healing truths of the divine Science revealed by our Leader.
After graduating from high school, I had the privilege of serving as an associate at the Christian Science Benevolent Association on Pacific Coast. There I witnessed many proofs of the practical applicability of Science, and the healing atmosphere which was a result of the love expressed by both associates and guests gave an invaluable impetus to my study and spiritual progress.
I was recently healed of a back condition accompanied by evidence of internal displacement which made movement painful and difficult. I am especially grateful for the help of a Christian Science practitioner, who aided me during this time to realize more of God's omnipresence and omnipotence. I soon learned that my real need was for clearer spiritual discernment, not merely for physical improvement. Mrs. Eddy tells us in Science and Health (p. 1) "The prayer that reforms the sinner and heals the sick is an absolute faith that all things are possible to God,—a spiritual understanding of Him, an unselfed love."
