Testimonies of Healing

When Christian Science was presented to me, I was under the care of three doctors for a skin disease. After spending two weeks in a hospital I was taken to a boardinghouse, where a kind gentleman asked me if I would care to try Christian Science.

When Christian Science was presented to me, I was lying in a hospital in Norway, where I had been for nine months, a mental and physical wreck with no hope of ever recovering or of rising from the depths of suffering, fear, and despondency. I was, according to medical diagnosis, suffering from a severe nervous breakdown with complications.

For many years I have read the testimonies of healing in the Christian Science periodicals. I am very grateful for the inspiration I have received from them, and it is now my desire to express gratitude to God through the periodicals also.

I first heard of Christian Science in 1943, and two years later I found myself relying on the truths that are embodied in this religion.

I received my first healing in Christian Science in 1918. For thirteen years I had suffered from stomach trouble, and I was gradually becoming very weak.

When the Christian Science textbook, Science and Health by Mrs. Eddy, was placed in my hands by a loving student, I was almost at the end of my human endurance.
