Testimonies of Healing

WITH a deep sense of thankfulness to God, and to our dear Leader, I would like to send my testimony to the healing power of Christian Science. It is now two and a half years since I began the study of this truth I had had very delicate health from childhood, and when thirteen years of age I met with a serious accident.

Five and a half years ago I picked up a Christian Science Journal in the weeds, at Monrovia, Cal. The testimonies arrested my attention, and led to the purchase of "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures" by Mrs.

I wish to express my gratitude for what Christian Science has done for me. Over a year ago I was taken very sick, and after six weeks of suffering it was decided by several of our best physicians that an operation was necessary.

The wonderful blessings that have come to me through Christian Science, since my first acquaintance with it ten months ago, make each day one of thanksgiving. For three years my health was most wretched, having suffered with stomach, bowel, and heart trouble,—indeed, it seemed to me, all the ills of the flesh,—when on the 7th of July, 1907, I was stricken with my third attack of severe illness.

That Christian Science heals our mental as well as our bodily ills, I can from experience affirm. When first i saw Mrs.

I wish to add my grateful testimony to that of the thousands of mothers who through Christian Science are being daily delivered from the torture and bondage of fear concerning their children. Although a close Bible student, teacher of a Bible class, and the wife of a minister, I gradually awoke to the realization that so far as our children were concerned I was without the least practical trust in the presence and power of God.

Christian Science healing was first brought to my attention through taking a medical patient to a Christian Science practitioner for healing, after all material means had failed. During a period of eight years I had seen the patient suffer physically and mentally from an incurable disease according to materia medica.

With a heart full of love and gratitude to God, and to His messenger for this age, Mrs. Eddy, I bear witness to the saving and healing power of Christian Science.

I desire to testify to the efficacy of the power of Truth to overcome and destroy error. In January, 1907, my mother was taken ill with a severe bronchial trouble.

After years of treatment for mental and physical trouble under the best physicians, my case was pronounced a hopeless one, and I was sentenced to years of suffering, which forced me to leave school. My parents finally had me try Christian Science, as a last resort.
