I am grateful to have been born...

Donald R. Rippberger

I am grateful to have been born into a Christian Science family and to have enjoyed the privileges of the Sunday School. But I am much more grateful to have been reborn in Christian Science through understanding and applying this truth. Fuller awareness of the power and grace of this Christly teaching came to me during the Second World War.

After failure at a university and at an Army school, I sought out a Christian Science Wartime Minister, as he was then called. A moral and spiritual awakening took place. The Bible became illumined, and the mission of Christ Jesus was made clear. Membership in The Mother Church resulted.

The following two years in England, France, and Germany were entirely joyous ones, full of enduring friendships, spiritual growth, and service as a Christian Science volunteer Wartime Worker, a position now known as a Christian Science Representative in the Armed Services. Hospitals and prisons were visited, and healings were effected for other soldiers and for me.
