WHEN SUBMITTING TESTIMONIES
We welcome readers to submit convincing testimonies of Christian Science healing for publication. These accounts should be concise and persuasive, demonstrating clearly that Christian Science heals.
Content: Please include several metaphysical points or describe the prayer and spiritual understanding that contributed to the healing; these are central to the testimony. Be sure to write in a way that is clear for a wide public audience.
Format: Manuscripts should be typed, if possible, with wide margins and doubleor triple-spacing. Use nonerasable paper, and type only on one side.
Verification: A testifier must submit verification from at least three members of The Mother Church who have either witnessed the healing(s) or can attest to his or her integrity. (If you are unacquainted with three members, please obtain verifications from as many members as possible.) Include verifications, along with all names and addresses, when submitting manuscripts.
All contributions accepted for publication become the sole property of The Christian Science Publishing Society.

THE HEALING MESSAGE OF CHRISTIAN SCIENCE
If you've heard about Christian Science and are wondering what it teaches, there's a book that gives the complete and definitive explanation. It's Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures by Mary Baker Eddy. The Bible and this book serve as the pastor of The Mother Church and its branches throughout the world. The healing message of Science and Health is for all mankind. The book is available in English, in English Braille, and in Czech, Danish, Dutch, Finnish, French, German, Greek, Indonesian, Italian, Japanese, Norwegian, Polish, Portuguese, Russian, Spanish, and Swedish. You can borrow or purchase it from any Christian Science Reading Room or order directly from the Publisher, the Writings of Mary Baker Eddy; One Norway Street; Boston, MA 02115–3122 U.S.A.
HAVE YOU HEARD THE SENTINEL?
The Christian Science Sentinel was established by Mary Baker Eddy "... to hold guard over Truth, Life, and Love. ..." This distinctly important mission applies to the print version of the Sentinel as well as the Christian Science Sentinel—Radio Edition, which can be heard over shortwave and many local commercial radio stations nationwide.
The program consists of interviews and features that look at a wide range of important concerns in the light of Christian Science. Also included are testimonies of healing, a segment focusing on the Bible, and often a hymn and a Letterbox section that answers listeners' questions. Shortwave programs are broadcast weekly. One broadcast per month is chosen for sale in Christian Science Reading Rooms as well as for individual subscription fulfillment.
You can find program listings in The Christian Science Journal, or you can visit a Reading Room to borrow or purchase a cassette. Subscriptions to the Sentinel radio cassette are available for US $96 per year (12 cassettes). You can order a subscription by calling 1–800–456–4851 in the U.S. and Canada. In other countries, you can call our London Office at 081–543–9393.
