I want to tell of my healing through Christian Science

Josephine Bacus

I want to tell of my healing through Christian Science. When I came to Seattle I had been suffering from what the doctors diagnosed as a serious female trouble. In moving here from Portland, the packing and lifting of heavy things seemed greatly to aggravate this sense of weakness. I could not walk any distance, and to carry or lift anything heavy seemed to cause great suffering.

I had some understanding of Christian Science and tried to handle the case myself with the help received from the reading of Science and Health, but was not successful. I then applied to a practitioner, who gave me one treatment. I was leaving the city to be gone some time, but she said she would remember me. I was able to carry my heavy suit-case that day, walked over a mile, and rode twelve miles in a stage over a rough road before I reached my destination that night. I was not conscious of any pain and have never had a return of this weakness. I was completely healed in the one treatment.

My heart goes out in grateful appreciation to divine Love for helping me to a better understanding of this great truth. To say I am thankful for all that Christian Science has done for me, for Science and Health with its wonderful "Key to the Scriptures" which our beloved Leader has given us, expresses my feelings but slightly.
