I wish to testify to the healing efficacy of Christian Science

Nancy Langhorne Astor

I wish to testify to the healing efficacy of Christian Science. In the spring of 1914 I was told by one of the best medical men in London that it would be many years before I could ever lead a normal life, that my spirit and vitality would wear me out. At that time I had been in bed more or less for eight months and tired for eight years. I got my healing in Christian Science, and when the war came on in August I started a life of activity which has gone on without ceasing, for five years. We have had a military hospital on our place and twenty-four hundred wounded have passed through it. The chief surgeon told me before sailing for Canada that in all of his experience he had never seen a woman able to do more.

The last baby was born with only the help of a loving Christian Science practitioner. A doctor was in the house but he was not needed and only came in after the child arrived. I should like for the sake of others to say that this birth was entirely without pain. I have six children and the others were born with the usual suffering.
