Testimonies of Healing
Christian Science has given to me the truth of God and man, and it has met my every need for over twenty years. When it was first presented to me I was facing semi-invalidism with promise of only slight relief through an operation.
It is simply impossible to count all the blessings which we have experienced in our family through the application of Christian Science. Of the many healings experienced I will mention only a few.
I Became a student of Christian Science through reading to my mother from the writings of Mary Baker Eddy. For years my mother had been an invalid, suffering from heart trouble, stomach trouble, and nervous breakdown, to mention only a few of her difficulties.

Many times I have been helped by reading the testimonies of healing published in the Journal and in the Christian Science Sentinel. Thus the desire has come to me to express my gratitude through this means for the many healings my family and I have received through the study and application of Christian Science.
In deep appreciation of the health, guidance, and protection which have come to me through the study and application of Christian Science, I should like to offer firsthand evidence of its efficacy. On numerous occasions during World War II the omnipresence and omnipotence of Mind were proved to me.
