Testimonies of Healing

Since coming into Christian Science I have been healed of many discordant conditions, such as ear trouble, headache, mental troubles, constipation, tonsillitis, catarrh of the stomach, eye trouble, and many other ills. I am truly grateful to-day to be able to bear witness, in a degree, to this healing message to the world of the great love of the Father who "healeth all thy diseases; who redeemeth thy life from destruction.

About three months previous to my coming into Christian Science I became deeply interested in the Bible. I shall always be grateful to the Gideon Bible Society, which distributes Bibles in the hotels.

For nearly twenty years I have enjoyed the multitudinous blessings of Christian Science. It has been a constant unfoldment of more and more good.

It is with a deep sense of gratitude for all that Christian Science has done for me that I send this testimony. I first heard of it many years ago, when I was living in Lima, Peru, South America, where a friend who had experienced a wonderful healing told me about it, as I was drifting into a condition of semi-invalidism and continually suffering.

I give this testimony desiring to express my full gratitude to the dear practitioner who has shown me the way of Truth through Christian Science. I was in such a wretched condition that I could not do anything, not even take care of my children, who were all of a tender age.

It is now over thirty-three years since I first heard of Christian Science. My mother, who then lived in Ontario, Canada, was very much distressed about my health, because our family physician held out no hopes for my recovery.

Christian Science has so completely changed my life and way of thinking that I may truly say it is as if I had been born again. From the time I was a child of eleven years I had suffered from a most severe form of bowel trouble.

I cannot find words to express my gratitude to God for the good that has come to me through Christian Science, which was first brought to my notice by a friend in California who told me in a letter what a wonderful healing she had experienced. The doctors had said she had cancer of the stomach.

I too am most grateful for Christian Science. After five years of semi-invalidism as the result of an operation (and the doctors said that another must be performed soon), I obtained a copy of the textbook, "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures" by Mary Baker Eddy, from the library and read this book for two weeks, most of the time lying on my back and unable to straighten my legs.

Over thirteen years ago I had my first healing and took up the study of Christian Science. Previous to this I had suffered for a number of years from what is known in the medical profession as rheumatic blood poisoning.
