Testimonies of Healing

When a member of my family wrote me from Saxony about Christian Science in 1921, it was the first time I had ever heard of this religion. I was at once very much interested in it and made use of the address given me to learn more about it.

I learned of Christian Science through the healing of a tubercular hip. When I was a child at boarding school I slipped on the stairs and injured a hip, and this injury later on developed into tuberculosis of the hip.

Out of deep gratitude for Christian Science and for the many blessings received through it I wish to give the following testimony. In 1921 I fell severely ill with stomach and intestinal ulcers.

It has long been my desire to relate some of the many blessings that Christian Science has brought me. At the time of my first knowledge of this truth, some thirty years ago, I thought of it only as a beautiful, satisfying religion which gave me that peace of mind for which I longed.

It is with a heart full of joy and gratitude that I submit this testimony. When I first heard of Christian Science I had been deaf for four years.

Over seven years ago I was healed of Bright's disease through Christian Science. I had been under the care of a physician who did not give me much encouragement, remarking, "Your condition is such that you need not expect very much help.

I feel I owe a great debt of gratitude for the teachings of Christian Science. I have had many wonderful healings, some instantaneous and some gradual.

Christian Science was accepted in my family at a time of great need. My mother was completely healed of a severe nervous breakdown after all medical resources had failed, and she is now more active, stronger, and happier than ever before.

It is indeed a joy to express gratitude for Christian Science. I shall always feel deeply indebted to our beloved Leader, Mary Baker Eddy.

It is with a deep sense of gratitude that I give my testimony. When I first heard of Christian Science, twenty-one years ago, I was sorely in need of healing.
