The knowledge of Christian Science...

The knowledge of Christian Science is my greatest blessing. I am very grateful to God and to Mary Baker Eddy for revealing a religion that heals as Christ Jesus healed. Its healing power has been proved to me and to my family many times.

I first heard of Christian Science while visiting in the home of a friend, a Christian Scientist. A kettle of boiling water was inadvertently poured over one of my feet. My friend knew the truth for me, and asked me not to take the shoe off or do anything to my foot for a while. I obeyed. When, after three hours, I went to my room to remove the shoe, I found my foot quite uninjured.

My grandmother was sick at the time with gallstones. She had been troubled most of her life with attacks of this disease, and many times we felt she would pass on during one of them. My friend told me to buy a copy of Science and Health by Mrs. Eddy for her. My grandmother was entirely healed through her first reading of this book. She studied every free minute, and put into practice what she learned. Through her own understanding she healed herself of three broken ribs. Later she had pneumonia. A friend who called me to go to her said that my grandmother could last but a few hours. I went to her side and asked whether or not she wanted me to call a Christian Science practitioner. "No, my dear," she said, "God and I have worked out many things together and I am sure we can this time." In three days she was up, doing her own work and glorifying God.
