Uintah M. Johnson

For many years I have been blessed through my study of Christian Science, and I am grateful for the training I received in a Christian Science Sunday School. Now I have children attending the Sunday School, and we rely wholly upon Christian Science for help. Each one of us has experienced many beautiful healings. Some have been the result of our own work; others have come through the loving and faithful help of practitioners.

I think one of the most outstanding physical healings I have ever witnessed took place a little over a year ago. My young daughter fell on the ice while skating and skinned her elbow. It looked like a slight injury at the time, but it did not heal and manifested a secondary infection. A couple of weeks later a small lump appeared on the underside of the arm above the elbow. A carbuncle developed, and knowing the medical beliefs regarding carbuncles, I became fearful and so sought help of a practitioner.

The healing seemed slow, and there were times when the child suffered almost unbearable pain. At these times we read continuously throughout the night from the Bible and from Science and Health by Mrs. Eddy. The child missed only a very few days of school and was so sustained that her friends did not know she was having this experience. Later the swelling came to a head and broke.
