How I Found Christian Science August 8, 2011 Issue

A new beginning

Sylke Herrmann —Stade, Germany

First published in Der Herold der Christlichen Wissenschaft.

I became acquainted with Christian Science when I was at the lowest point of my life. I felt like I was in a free fall and things were going only downward.

Within a period of three years, first my father passed away, then my sister (she took her own life), and finally my mother. Because of poor health I was unemployed and had more bills than I could pay and was not able to maintain my parents’ house.

Not long before the death of my mother we heard about Christian Science through our new family doctor. He told us, “You’ve got the right kind of mind-set. I know about something wonderful you might be interested in. It’s called Christian Science, and you may want to get in touch with these people.”
