Testimonies of Healing

Christian Science has been such a great blessing in my life that only by consecrating the best in me to helping others see the truth can I ever repay in a measure all I have gained through its tender ministrations. Like countless others I too appreciate this privilege of joining the Psalmist in saying, "I will praise thee, O Lord, with my whole heart; I will shew forth all thy marvellous works.

Mrs. Eddy says on page 68 of the textbook, "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures": "Christian Science presents unfoldment, not accretion; it manifests no material growth from molecule to mind, but an impartation of the divine Mind to man and the universe.

I have had many healings in Christian Science, but the one that stands out most clearly is my first, because it proved to me beyond a shadow of doubt that Christian Science is indeed the truth, which Christ Jesus said "shall make you free. " In May, 1918, at the age of fifteen, I was taken to a hospital after being in bed four months under the care of doctors.

Christian Science came to me nineteen years ago. I attended a Wednesday evening testimony meeting at The Mother Church with a friend, and shall never forget the peace and calmness that I experienced as I entered the auditorium.

At birth my fontanelle extended halfway down my forehead. I was carried on pillows for several months.

Christian Science came into my experience when I was a young girl, and although it was not needed for physical healing for several years, it was to me a most beautiful religion. As years passed and the need of healing was presented, only Christian Science was used, and always with the best results.

[Original testimony in German] Deep gratitude impels me to testify to a wonderful healing which I experienced through Christian Science. In January, 1927, I gave birth to a little daughter.

When I think of what I wasbefore Christian Science came to me and what I am now, words are not available to express my peace and harmony and contentment. I have been healed of hay fever, constipation, car sickness, and crossed eyes by just gaining a better understanding of man's relationship to God, through the study of Christian Science.

When about six years of age I was taken to a funeral. I could not understand why God should take away a person's loved ones, and I lost all faith in Him.

I am grateful for this opportunity to testify to the healing power of Christian Science. My first healing was of a severe impediment of the speech that I had had since learning to talk.
