It is now about twenty-five years since I read the Christian Science lecture which enlightened my darkened sense and convinced me that this Science was the answer to my long search for Truth.

I have had many beautiful healings through the ministrations of Christian Science.

It is with gratitude that I acknowledge the healing of ills and the unfoldment of spiritual ideas, which have resulted from the study of God and man as revealed in Christian Science.

My mother began the study of Christian Science when I was a child, and through her unswerving allegiance to its teachings she gained much peace, happiness, and health.
