Testimonies of Healing
The healing efficacy of the Christ, Truth, as taught in Christian Science has been demonstrated in our family many times. When I was six years old, I was healed in Christian Science of scarlet fever and of a severe rupture for which medical science had been unable to provide any permanent relief.
I have been a student of Christian Science for about nine years, and it has brought me many blessings.

My gratitude is boundless for Christian Science, which was presented to me by a sister when I was in great need. I had been hungering for an understanding of God for years.
One of the greatest pleasures of my life is to tell the story of God's unfailing care. Words alone can never express my gratitude, but together with my earnest endeavor to be more Christlike, they can do much.
