I grew up in Spain. My youth was very normal, with a focus on music.

A friend invited me to a Christian Science testimony meeting. That started me on a spiritual journey that has taken me from merely believing in God to a growing understanding of God as Love itself, an all-powerful and ever-present Parent.

I am married and the father of 4 children. Although originally from the Democratic Republic of Congo, I have been living with my family in Brussels, Belgium, in recent years.

I have always loved the Scriptures. Growing up in a Christian Science home, my family turned to the Bible daily for guidance, strength, and practical help.

Growing up, Christian Science was my lifeline. I wasn't super tied in to church, but I had a concrete feeling there was a source I could turn to for comfort, inspiration, and direction: God.

I grew up in a very loving home, with three brothers and two sisters. My mom lived Christian Science! She was widowed when all six of us were very young, and never worked outside the home.

During college, a significant healing established me on a path to not only better know and understand God, but also to understand why that mattered . After being ill in bed for a week, I was healed overnight after a Christian Science practitioner (whom I’d asked to pray for me) spoke to me about the First Commandment in a way that challenged and revitalized my thinking.

As I was born and brought up in a Hindu family in Northern India, I was totally unaware of Christian Science till someone gifted me a copy of Science and Health with key to the Scriptures in 1975. Understanding the effectiveness of scientific prayer I was impelled to form a group of Christian Scientists that became a Society recognized by The Mother Church in 1983.

I live in the country in Salem, Oregon, where I teach my classes in a tree house environment. I think of my students as an extension of our large diverse family.

I became acquainted with Christian Science thanks to a niece of mine who was born deaf and dumb and was healed by a Christian Scientist in 1973. I started investigating Science through the Bible Lessons . I was then healed of a violent headache and of a white spot on one of my eyes. After I shared a few spiritual truths with a friend, he was healed of malaria.
