MY MAIN PRIORITY

ALEXIS DEACON—BOSTON, MASSACHUSETTS

FOR ME, it's always been about the love.

Love for God and for others is the reason I decided to devote my life to helping people through prayer. I vividly remember the comfort and healings I experienced from turning to God's love and the teachings of Jesus while I was growing up. My childhood experiences in Christian Science made me want to help others in the same way that I'd been helped.

Even though I'd strayed from practicing Christian Science during college, I never forgot what I felt was its central teaching: God is Love, and Love cares for me always. No matter what I've done, no matter where I think I've gone, the spiritual fact remains that God is always with me, with each one of us. All I need to do in any situation is turn to divine Love and obey Love's messages.
