I am very grateful for the wonderful truth of Christian Science, and for the many blessings we have received from it.

Before knowing of this Science I had wondered if there was really a God that cared for us and helped us in our many difficulties, sicknesses, and heartaches. A friend gave me some articles on Christian Science cut from the Monitor. I shall always remember the day I read them. It was as a light shining in my darkened consciousness. I knew then that God existed, and that He watched over us and was very near to each and all of His children.

Eight years after I knew of this truth, my husband started to go to church with me. As he began to see the truth of Christian Science, he was wonderfully healed of the smoking habit. I had been healed of many minor ailments before this. Severe stomach trouble, from which I had suffered for many years, yielded to the truth when, refusing to listen to error's suggestions to use material means, I relied on God alone. One night I had been in agony, but when I awoke the next morning I was healed. That was over thirteen years ago, and the condition has never returned. Among many other healings was that of influenza in a severe form, which was overcome in half an hour.
