Words seem inadequate to express my gratitude for what Christian Science has done and is doing for me and for all mankind. Some years ago I was very ill, suffering from what was supposed to be typhoid fever. I knew nothing of Christian Science, but when a friend suggested to my husband that we give it a trial I willingly consented, Absent treatment was given early in the afternoon, and four hours later I was able to be down to dinner with my family, every manifestation of illness having disappeared. This was such an absolute proof to me of the power of God that in gratitude for my healing I immediately commenced the study of the textbook, "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures" by Mary Baker Eddy. As I put into practice the little I could grasp of the truth, I found that many other physical ailments disappeared into their native nothingness. For ten years I had been a great sufferer from inflammatory rheumatism, but this condition was healed also as the purification of thought went on.

That "the word of God is quick, and powerful" has been proved many, many times. For all the physical healings I am very grateful but most grateful for the correct concept of God, and man in the image and likeness of God. I am inexpressibly grateful for all the channels for good provided by our beloved Leader. Mary Baker Eddy.
