I was raised in Angola. In 1971 I finished secondary school, received a certificate in general pedagogy, and started working as a teacher.

To get to the bottom of events, to know how something really is: that has motivated me since my childhood, to ask questions. Quite early, I found answers in music, while playing the piano and composing; tones, sounds, and rhythms opened great, wonderful spaces.

The value of Christian Science, not just as a system of healing but as a way of life, became clear to me while attending Sunday School in Patchogue, Long Island, New York. I learned at an early age that God is ever-present, omnipotent Love, and that man is God’s reflection and expression. This was a saving grace! As I became aware that not everyone knew or understood that divine reality and its application, I realized that I wanted to spend the rest of my life studying, applying, demonstrating, and sharing the gospel, or the good news of Christian Science.  Consequently, as the only Christian Scientist in a high school with 2,000 students, I had several opportunities to speak with sociology and comparative religion classes. Then, similar opportunities were presented in college. This is where my work in the public practice of healing began. After college, I trained and served as a Christian Science nurse for 10 years, before becoming a Journal -listed practitioner in 1981and a teacher of Christian Science in 1985. Since then, I have served on the Board of Lectureship, as Second Reader at The Mother Church, as Vice President of the Board of Education, have written for the periodicals of the Christian Science Publishing Society, and have been interviewed for the Sentinel Radio Program and on an audio chat for spirituality.com.

Christian Science found me while I was just a young person. I had been fairly content with life, but my experiences and something within were showing me that life had a bigger significance than what appeared.

I am a Journal-listed Christian Science practitioner and teacher, who truly enjoys working for God. All of my life, I have looked for spiritual answers.

Growing up in a family that loved and practiced Christian Science, Ann saw how God heals sickness and relationship problems, meets financial needs, solves business issues, and answers life’s questions. In the Christian Science Sunday School, Ann learned to rely upon the healing ideas in the Bible, as explained in Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures, by Mary Baker Eddy.

Healing in Christian Science is joyful— it’s the natural result of understanding God as divine Life and Love. Ann Kneeland, a Christian Science practitioner and lecturer, shares real-life examples of spiritual healing.
