Testimonies of Healing

I would like to express my gratitude for the many blessings experienced through the understanding of Christian Science. I took up the study of this religion in July, 1915.

I have found that this Science is equal to any emergency; in fact, it truly offers a full salvation, for its Principle is God, divine Love.
So many blessings have come to me through Christian Science that perhaps I have taken them too much as a matter of course. At present I am where I cannot tell of my gratitude at our Wednesday evening meetings, so am sending this testimony in the hope that through our periodicals I may help some one else.
