Growing up in a loving Christian Science home in California, I witnessed and experienced many healings through prayer. Later, after unfruitful years of exploring different modes of thinking and behavior, I found myself drawn back to the truths, the universal spiritual laws I had learned as a child--the pure and deeply practical teachings of Christian Science.  I knew this was the Truth -- the unwavering nature of God's love, the supreme power and grace of God's goodness -- that I had found nowhere else.  I experienced healing and a deep yearning to understand more of God, which led me to take Primary class in 1983.

Our family was introduced to Christian Science when my grandfather was dying of tuberculosis. Someone directed him to a Christian Science practitioner and he was healed, going on to live a long and happy life. But each one of us has to make Christian Science our own, and I found my conviction and calling in my early twenties through in-depth study and prayer when I was expecting my first child. I also had several significant healings that pointed me to the truth of Christ-centered, Jesus-patterned spirituality as taught in Christian Science.

I am a fourth generation Christian Science practitioner living in Tennessee with my husband, Bill. Starting from the time I was in grade school, I had opportunities to put into practice the ideas that I was learning in the Christian Science Sunday school with classmates. I also discovered, during those years, that I loved the arts, especially visual art and singing. It became clear to me in my continuing study of Christian Science that God is the source of all good and that the talents I was expressing all came from infinite God, good. I knew the ability to heal also came from that same source of infinite Love and so it just felt natural to become a full-time Christian Science Practitioner in 2005. I have such deep gratitude for the healings my family and I have experienced, that I want to share with anyone seeking to have a better understanding of God and those who have questions about Christian Science.
