With a grateful heart I desire to testify to the blessings...

With a grateful heart I desire to testify to the blessings which I have received since becoming interested in Christian Science. For four years I suffered from a severe rupture and bladder trouble, making it very difficult to do my own work, also causing intense pain while walking. I was going to be operated upon, but the extreme fear of an operation held me back. One day I received several Herolds from a practitioner. Immediately I recognized the truth contained therein, and the truth has made me free. Through the help of a practitioner I was completely healed, so that I am now better able to do my work than I was twenty years ago.

Our eight-year-old son suffered from hernia and growths in the nose, his condition often causing me hours of sadness, but he was completely healed in a very short time through my slight understanding of the truth I could relate many more blessings received daily through Christian Science, but all could not be told. It has brought happiness and peace daily. The most important factor to me is that I have found the truth, and that no other physician than God is necessary. I would not part with the knowledge gained through the reading of the Bible and "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures" by Mary Baker Eddy for any price. Words are inadequate to express my thankfulness to God, and gratitude to Mrs. Eddy, as well as to those who have helped me; I am also very grateful for the church services, the textbook, and Herolds. My one desire is to follow the path that leads to God, Truth, Life, and Love.
