Testimonies of Healing

I thank our loving Father-Mother God for the priceless gift of Christian Science. It was introduced to my family, when I was very young, by a close family friend.

In the Bible we read, "Call upon me in the day of trouble: I will deliver thee, and thou shalt glorify me" ( Ps. 50:15 ).

The son of kind, religious, and charitable parents, I was at an early age attending a Church of England Sunday School every Sunday, both in the morning and the afternoon. On reaching the age of eight years, I became a church choirboy.

When I was twelve years old, I began to think about God and mankind. What led to this was an illness of my mother.

For more than half a century I have experienced the benefits of Christian Science, individually and for my family. Before this healing and regenerating truth came into our lives, I had attended a service in a Church of Christ, Scientist, only once, as a child, and had never known about Science and Health by Mrs.

Both of my parents took up the study of Christian Science when I was still an infant. Eventually they became class-taught students and as a result I enjoyed a childhood which was very happy.

My last testimony appeared in the Christian Science Sentinel , February 3, 1940. After leaving the Christian Science Sunday School, having reached the age of twenty, I applied and was accepted for Christian Science class instruction.

"The 'still, small voice' of scientific thought reaches over continent and ocean to the globe's remotest bound. " So writes Mrs.

Some months ago the opportunity for promotion presented itself. In preparation, before applying for the post, I studied the Bible, and Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures by Mary Baker Eddy.

My first testimony was published in the Christian Science Sentinel of May 25, 1968. Again I wish to express my gratitude to God for the healing Christ and for Christ Jesus' comforting assurance in Luke ( 12:32 ), "Fear not, little flock; for it is your Father's good pleasure to give you the kingdom.
