I am happy to have been raised in a Christian Science Sunday School, where I learned my relationship to God, our Father-Mother, was most important. I joined The Mother Church while a teenager and married at 19. Afterwards, my husband refused Christian Science in the home. Nine years later, I was faced with a frightening diagnosis but was healed overnight with the help of my mother’s prayerful support.

It was through the kindness of a neighbor, who drove my sister and me to Sunday School every week, that I was introduced to Christian Science and had a healing that changed my life. Neither of my parents were Christian Scientists, and I’d been born with a disfiguring skin condition.

When I was a teenager, my family moved to a small West Texas town. There, I met a family who were students of Christian Science.

From childhood, I found comfort in the Bible. My family heavily relied on drugs, and I felt their side effects made my mother a different person.

It was in college that I first learned the importance of being more consistent in accepting spiritual harmony as the only reality. It was a modest step of spiritualizing thought, and one that I’ve had to relearn at times.  But it brought more healing into my life, and led to my entering the full-time public practice of Christian Science after I graduated. Since becoming a teacher of Christian Science, I have grown to appreciate even more the loving demands on all of us to grow spiritually, to love God and our fellow man, and to demonstrate the truth of Christian Science in healing.  Over the years I have worked for The Mother Church at different times: as a Regional Assistant talking with Christian Science college organizations in the Midwest; as a staff editor for the Christian Science Journal and Sentinel; as Assistant Manager of Practitioners and Nursing Activities, and then Manager of Practitioner Activities. Most recently I was Editor of the Christian Science Journal, Sentinel, and Herald.

I was introduced to Christian Science after university when a friend asked me to sing at her branch church in India. A few months later, while living on my own in Hong Kong, I needed to make Christian Science my own by demonstrating, in modest ways, that God is Love itself.

I attended a commercial secondary school (1961-1968) and studied economics at a university (1969-1973). After this education, I taught mathematics for two years before being employed by a well-respected American commercial bank in Kinshasa for fourteen years.

Christian Science is the framework of my life. The naturalness of turning to God is something I first learned from my parents, grandparents and Sunday School teachers.

I graduated from college as a teacher of commercial science and worked for the post office, for public schools as teacher, and for my own business. Before discovering Christian Science, I was healed of several diseases, and I healed other people at my former church through faith and prayer.
