Florence V. Gustafson

Christian Science has brought to our home joy, freedom, and peace, a peace that replaces to a great measure the apprehensions of human experience. This blessed truth has revealed to us a God who is Love, a tender, loving Father-Mother, who provides His children with all good and who has brought us closer to Him than ever before.

Science has healed us of various physical difficulties. One such experience over five years ago involved the freeing of our family of six from the effects of a very serious automobile accident. Our station wagon left the road on a mountain grade about fifty miles from home, struck a tree with full force, and overturned. The tree prevented us from going down the embankment, but the car was almost completely demolished.

Through the forest rangers, we immediately got in touch with a Christian Science practitioner from our home city. Although the instructions as to location were very indefinite, the practitioner started prayerfully forth. She came upon one ambulance on the mountain grade and followed it to the receiving hospital, where alert thinking kept us from being taken into the building. Great resistance on the part of doctors and nurses was lovingly overcome. They were assured that Christian Science would meet our every need, and we were allowed to proceed to our home forty miles away. By the time we reached home, there was much improvement. The next day we were all on our feet, the children able to attend school. There were no aftereffects of shock; lacerations and bruises disappeared within six days.
