Pieternella de Keijzer-Dorreboom

It is with deep gratitude and reverence to God that I give thanks for the many blessings that have come my way through the study and application of Christian Science. I was a young girl when Science was presented to me. At that time our family was in a state of grief and sorrow due to the loss of an older sister of mine. Moreover, I was sick, and great fear was expressed that I was suffering from the same illness that had resulted in my sister's passing on.

Up to that time I had had no religious education, and God meant little or nothing to me. I shall never forget my first visit to a Christian Science practitioner, for although I did not think that I had grasped much of what he said, yet I felt more uplifted and happy than I had ever felt before. Soon I was not only healthy, but was experiencing a peace of mind and a sense of joy that I had never known.

I shall always be grateful for the privilege of attending a Christian Science Sunday School for about a year, until I was twenty. After I took up the daily study of the Lesson-Sermons in the Christian Science Quarterly, blessings were experienced by me and mine. Family life became happier and more harmonious as I learned to see the real man's spiritual status.
