About three years ago I began to study the teachings of Christian Science. At that time I was in a Veterans' Hospital, five years of medical treatment having failed to heal me of tuberculosis. I was also suffering from pneumonia and from sinusitis.

My wife had been a student of Christian Science for some time, but I had not accepted it. Finally I asked for help, and a practitioner, whose services were provided by the Christian Science Camp Welfare Activities, visited me. During the first treatment I was healed of the sinusitis. In a very few weeks I was healed of the pneumonia and tuberculosis. I immediately left the hospital and have since led a normal life.

When I first began the study of Christian Science I was bothered daily with indigestion. In a short time all symptoms of it disappeared, and they have never returned.

For all that Christian Science has done for me; for our Way-shower, Christ Jesus; for our beloved Leader, Mary Baker Eddy; and for membership in The Mother Church and a branch church, I am deeply grateful to God.—Ivan Chester Bearden, Modesto, California.
