Can I pray for my friends who aren’t Christian Scientists?
Q: How can I help my friends who aren’t Christian Scientists when they have a problem? Can I pray even if they haven’t asked me to?
A: I was on a weekend trip with some childhood friends when one mentioned that she was experiencing recurring urinary tract infections (UTIs) and wanted to stop by the store to pick up medicine. As we drove, I remembered an experience I’d had in college.
One day during my freshman year, I felt the symptoms of what seemed like a UTI coming on. I knew I could pray about this because I’d experienced Christian Science healing before and knew the effectiveness of turning to God for help. I called my mom, and she assured me that we could pray together.
