About ten years ago I took up the study of Christian Science for healing and found that it was all and more than was claimed for it, as I also received a great spiritual uplift. I have got rid of many bad effects by getting rid of the thinking from which they resulted. Some of the healings are of granulated eyelids, rheumatism, deafness, stomach and bowel trouble. While I am very grateful for these healings I am more grateful for the understanding of God as the one Father-Mother, who is perfect; for the knowledge of one perfect creator and one perfect creation, of a God who is Love, whose will is good, and who gives nothing but good to His children. I am very thankful to God and grateful to all who have helped me to gain some understanding of the truth, which Jesus said would make us free.

After eight years' service with various families I took a post with Christian Scientists. After being in the house a few weeks I was very puzzled as to what these people were, for they lived in such harmony with each other that it made me want to understand what it was that made them all so happy and contented. I asked my mistress for some of her papers; she gave me some copies of the Christian Science Sentinel and they opened up a new life for me. I read them every spare moment and was very much helped by the testimonies. Shortly after, I bought a copy of the Christian Science textbook, "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures" by Mary Baker Eddy, and found when reading it that many ills from which I had suffered, such as acute anemia, indigestion, constipation, and a sense of separation were completely healed.
