I first became interested in Christian Science...

I first became interested in Christian Science through the healing of my mother, who had for many years sought relief through medical means from an internal difficulty which the physicians declared incurable. After hearing of Christian Science, she asked for treatment. She was helped and finally completely healed. Although I was a little girl, this healing made a deep impression upon me. There was not only a complete physical change, but my mother's nature, which had been very morose, was changed to a joyous one; and she in turn helped others through Christian Science over a period of years.

At the age of twelve I joined The Mother Church, and I have had the joy of working on almost every committee in a branch church. It has brought growth and spiritual unfoldment, for through this work I learned to co-operate with fellow members and to become more unselfish, always holding in mind the real goal of strengthening our Cause.

I have been healed of chronic colds, sore throat, and bronchial trouble which was so severe that it was necessary for me to remain in bed for days at a time. This was healed as fear was overcome and as it became clear that man's being is impregnable and forever at-one with God, who has given him dominion over all the earth. The daily overcoming of sinful beliefs is the thing for which I am most grateful.
