Testimonies of Healing

It is with an almost overwhelming sense of gratitude that I give this testimony to what Christian Science healing has done for me. While going to my business on Feb.

Christian Science has done so much for me that I desire to acknowledge publicly my gratitude for it all. I was a member of a church for a number of years, also a teacher in its Sunday school, but must say I was never satisfied.

I had always been terrified at the thought of having a tooth extracted, and I had been a student of Christian Science several years before it became necessary for me to go to a dental office for that purpose. A lower tooth had been giving me some trouble, so I decided to have it removed.

My sister, living in Scotsville, Cape Breton, suffered for about three years from severe inflammation in her knee, accompanied, as is usual in such cases, by stiffness of the joint and great pain. Several physicians, among them one of Quincy's leading doctors and an eminent medical man in Boston, treated her, but failed to effect a cure or even secure permanent improvement.

SEVEN years ago last November (1910) I was completely healed of acute lung trouble, neuralgia, and rheumatism, through the operation of Christian Science. I was also freed at the same time from the liquor and tobacco habits.

As one who has been brought back from "the valley of the shadow of death," through the power of Truth as revealed in Christian Science, I wish to give my testimony as an expression of gratitude to God for His "unspeakable gift," and to Mrs. Eddy for her unselfish work in behalf of mankind.

It gives me great pleasure to express my gratitude for what Christian Science has done for me. In January, 1911, I fell and injured my right arm.

[Translated from the German] On Friday, Dec. 15, 1911, I was suddenly seized with a pain which so increased in severity that my husband sent for a physician, who stated that it was a serious affection of the kidneys.

I wish to express my heartfelt gratitude for the blessings and spiritual uplifting which I have received through Christian Science. I was brought up in the teachings of another church, but at about the age of twenty I became dissatisfied with religion of any kind, and suddenly turned away from God altogether.

It is with a heart full of love and gratitude that I give this testimony. In Science and Health ( p.
