Testimonies of Healing
It is with deep joy and a sense of utmost gratitude that I wish to testify to the many blessings received,—the proofs of the power of Truth as found in Christian Science. Six years have elapsed since I became acquainted with its teachings.
The testimonies of the healing power of Truth have been so helpful to me that I desire to tell others of my thankfulness to God for the wonderful healing which came to me through Christian Science. Twelve years ago I barely recovered from an acute attack of illness which left a chronic stomach trouble that doctors were unable to relieve.
I became interested in Christian Science through the healing of our child. In February, 1908, our little daughter had a severe illness which developed into acute lung trouble.
I desire to give my testimony in gratitude for the good I have received in Christian Science. About four years ago I was in a hopeless condition, discouraged and tired of living, if I could not have better health.

When I came to Christian Science three years ago, I was suffering from a stomach difficulty, lung trouble, kidney and bladder disorder, as well as from several minor ailments. I had not taken any substantial food for eighteen months, and I had lost greatly in weight, for I was starving in a land of plenty.
It is with a grateful heart that I testify to the blessings which God has bestowed upon me through Christian Science. In November,1913, I was taken ill with appendicitis.
Nine years ago, after being bedfast most of the time for three years and given up by physicians, who said it was "just a matter of time," a letter was received telling of the healing power of Christian Science. Following it came a copy of "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures" by Mrs.
Shortly after Christian Science came into my life, I had a very practical demonstration of the healing power of Truth. On my way to attend a Thanksgiving service at First Church, London, I was hurrying to catch a train running into a district station, when I fell from the top step.
