Philip Howard Spitta with contributions from Mabel Spitta

I was first introduced to Christian Science in May, 1934, and not long afterwards attended my first lecture. The logic of the latter so convinced me that I accepted the truth contained in the writings of Mrs. Eddy, and have relied ever since upon her healing message and its efficacy.

Prior to my attending the lecture, I had been healed in Christian Science of asthma, from which I had suffered for several years. At that time I was not conscious of the healing, but, as the facts are interesting, I relate them and hope that they will help others.

I was spending the evening with friends, and experienced one of the worst attacks of the condition. Although I did not at the time know it, one of the guests was a student of Christian Science of many years' standing. Later I went home, and, contrary to custom when suffering from one of the attacks, I was able to fall asleep, and slept the whole night through, lying down normally, instead of being propped up with pillows as on other occasions. From that day to this there has been no recurrence of the trouble.
