Dennis James Askwith

I wish to testify to the healing and saving power of Truth as taught in Christian Science. During my war service I spent a period as a physical training instructor and had the task of training a team for a competition. One day, in giving a demonstration, I fell heavily, injuring my side. I was in extreme pain and unable to do any more demonstrating. I wrote to a practitioner, and through her help in a few days I was able to enter the competition with my team and to do quite comfortably all that was necessary.

However, on leaving the forces I found that I was not placing all my weight on the side that had been injured. Finally the latent fear I held manifested itself as an abscess, which kept recurring. Each year this condition grew worse. I was compelled either to take a stand for Christian Science or to undergo an operation. I took my stand for Christian Science and endeavored to demonstrate Truth in a complete healing. After another attack the condition was destroyed through the help of a practitioner and my own trust in God.
