When Christian Science was...

When Christian Science was presented to my mother, it was to answer her questions about religion and the Bible rather than for physical healing. So convincing were the facts stated in "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures" and Prose Works by Mary Baker Eddy that, although we had depended on various kinds of medicine for our well-being, my mother cleared out the medicine closet and threw everything away. From then on our whole family relied entirely on Christian Science.

I was ten years old at the time and was privileged to attend the Christian Science Sunday School until the age of twenty. My first healing was of tonsillitis that I had had twice a year for as long as I could remember.

I am filled with gratitude for the many healings, as well as the protection, that my parents, my little sister, and I experienced by having this Science in our home.
