‘I wanted to serve God’

It was the early 1990s, and I was living in Paris. I had been praying for many years to find a religion that would help me learn about God. I wanted to serve God, but a God I could know and understand. 

However, it wasn’t until I moved back to Luanda, the capital city of my native Angola, that I found Christian Science. I remained in Angola for some time at a friend’s house, and my friend had some Christian Science literature, including a magazine called The Herald of Christian Science, which he gave me. I knew nothing about Christian Science, but I loved everything I read in that magazine. In fact, for about six months the Herald was the only thing I read every day.
