Healing during a church service

Joy Thompson Dingee

A number of years ago I had a wonderful healing during a Christian Science church service. I was experiencing symptoms of an abscessed tooth, and though I had been to a dentist regularly in the past, I decided that I wanted to handle this situation through Christian Science. I had grown up in Christian Science, and it had proved to be very effective in meeting my health-care needs.

I called a Christian Science practitioner, and she agreed to give me Christian Science treatment. I don’t remember the exact thoughts she shared with me, but they were very reassuring. I’m sure that she was praying to see my perfection as an idea of God. About a week went by. Sometimes I was tempted to wonder if I had enough faith and understanding to meet this challenge, but I did not doubt the efficacy of Christian Science, just as a math student would not doubt the principle of mathematics.
